Chamberlain was booted out of office over appeasement. You're still defending Stalin's decision to invade Poland with the Nazis. That's the difference between reasonable people and tankies.
The USSR "invaded" 16 days after the Germans. At that time, there was no Poland. The Government had been interned in Romania.
Why put invaded in quotes? Did it not happen?
The Polish government fled to Romania the day after the Soviets invaded. So yes, there was still a Poland. Just like there was a Poland when the Soviets and the Nazis planned to invade the country and split it amongst themselves.
Right, Seems so. They only passed the Romanian border on the 17th.
