The Soviet Union ended up fighting on the same side as the Allies during World War II primarily due to Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, which shattered the Nazi-Soviet non-aggression pact. Faced with a common enemy, the USSR joined forces with the Allies, including the United States and the United Kingdom, to combat the Axis powers. This alliance was largely pragmatic, as the survival of the Soviet state was at stake, despite the ideological differences between the communist USSR and the capitalist Allies.

This may be nit-picking, but it probably would not be for natives of the several former Soviet Socialist Republics. Russia and the Soviet Union were actually never "the same". It's a little like asking 'During what years were England and Great Britain the same?' The term 'Russia' was often used as a commonly understood but not entirely accurate way of refering to the Soviet Union, in much the same way that the term 'America' is widely but inaccurately used to refer to the US. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics existed from about 1918 until 1991. See link for more details.
