How did Stalin use the loss of soviet lives in world war 2 to justify soviet expansion of their sphere into eastern Europe?

Stalin leveraged the immense loss of Soviet lives during World War II, which amounted to millions, to justify the expansion of Soviet influence in Eastern Europe by framing it as a necessary security measure. He argued that the establishment of friendly, communist governments in neighboring countries was essential to prevent future invasions and protect the Soviet Union. This narrative appealed to national pride and the sacrifices made during the war, positioning Soviet expansion as a means of safeguarding the hard-won peace and stability. Thus, the heavy toll of the war was used to legitimize the imposition of Soviet control over Eastern Europe.
