WestVirginiaRebel Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 PJ Media: Russia’s ambassador to Poland has angered the highest levels of the Polish government by claiming that Russia’s invasion of Poland at the outset of World War II was “self defense.” Nazi Germany invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, while the Russians invaded 16 days later. The twin invasions were the result of a secret protocol in the Nazi -Soviet Pact signed August 25, 1939, where the two powers agreed to divide Poland and other parts of Eastern Europe into spheres of influence. At the time of the Russian invasion, Stalin claimed that Poland had ceased to exist as a state and Soviet troops were moving in to restore order. ________ In Russia, history rewrites you.
