What were Joseph Stalin's acts of aggression?

Answer 1

Iossef Jugashvili, forever known as Josef Stalin is among history's worst mass murderers, along with Adolf Hitler and Mao Zedong. His victims number in the tens of millions between those executed, deported, and disappeared. Violence was committed through his state instruments of the NKVD (predecessor to the KGB), comprehensive state security apparatuses, complex gulag-prison camp systems across Siberia and the Far East, and foreign atrocities such as Katyn and the Rape of Berlin.

Answer 2

There were several. The most prominent are first, his invasion of Finland and of the Baltic States before WW 2, later the invasion of Poland together with Nazi Germany at the start of WW 2, and finally the blockade of Berlin after WW 2 to force out the Western Allies.

The occupation and later, the installation of Communist puppet regimes in east European countries do not really count. The occupations were part of his counter-offensive against Nazi Germany, and he had been promised by Churchill and Roosevelt at the Yalta Conference that afterwards, he could keep these countries (most of them pro-Nazi and actually fighting him during WW 2) in his 'sphere of influence'.
