The Soviet Union no longer exists. When it did, the countries on its western border were Norway, Finland, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Romania.
Soviet Union interest in Finland, Estonia,Latvia and Lithuania had to do with security. Stalin feared these countries could serve as base of operations for Germany or West as a whole in an event of attack against Soviet Union. On the other hand, seizing control over these countries would provide Soviet Union with a firmer foothold in area of Baltic Sea.
In 1961 the Soviet Union attempted to take over West Berlin.
The Soviet Union ceased to exist 24 years ago, and there is no shared border between Russia and Poland. The border between Poland on the west, and Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania on the east, follows very roughly the line of 22 degrees east longitude.
their issue was that they had problems with eachother
