The invasion of the Soviet Union was delayed because of issues in the Balkans. The failure of Mussolinis invasion of Greece exposed Hitlers flank to British air bases. Also there was a perceived problem with gasoline to fuel the German armored divisions.

What enabled the Soviet Union to survive a Nazis attack?

Heroism of the Russian people, aided by the winter weather in Russia. Could also say that Mussolini helped by causing the invasion of Russia to be delayed when he attacked Greece and Yugoslavia and had to be bailed out by Germany - this 6 weeks delay could have resulted in a German victory. German Generals were also to blame for not providing adequate winter equipment, along with Hitlers 'no retreat' policy which was plain stupid.
