Just maybe when Molotov signed that deal with Ribbentrop, that the Soviets were trying to appease Hitler in to attacking the west first,, which he did, that deal lasted almost 2years.Maybe Stalin was hoping to share even more spoils with Hitler,After all Stalin snapped up the Baltic countries. But also lets add this yet another Hitler/Stalin pact, signed a few months AFTER the west declared war on Germany. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German%E2%80%93Soviet_Commercial_Agreement_(1940)
