Original Note:
Putin omits the secret protocol of the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. Stalin fired Ribbentrop's predecessor, who had negotiated protection from Germany by the Allies specifically to side with Hitler. Putin seems to have forgotten Boris Yeltsin published the Russian copy in 1992. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov%E2%80%93Ribbentrop_Pact https://www.nytimes.com/1992/10/30/world/archives-yield-soviet-german-pact.html
