Ribbentrop & Molotov agreed a Non Aggression pact which secured Germanys' Eastern front. Poland was attacked by both. The Non aggression lasted until midsummer of 1941 when Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa. The German advances continue until the end of 1942. 18 long hard months for the Soviets in which many died or were captured. Many of the German forces were subsequently made up of people from Ukraine or Belorusse. These men had the choice of enlistment into the Whermacht or death. (No choice, is there) and similarly there was no choice for Russia.

∙ 14y agoGermany and the Soviet Union signed a non-aggression pact early in the war, but Hitler never trusted Stalin and he believed that Germany would eventually need Russian territory and the oil and other resources found there. Germany therefore launched a surprise attack on Russia in 1943 (?). Up to the moment German troops crossed the border, Stalin refused to listen to some of his advisors that were telling him not to trust Hitler.
