    France and UK committed to it. I don’t expect the USSR to have done it, but I would’ve preferred to see that sort of larger deterrent.

      The UK and France didn’t commit to jack shit. They had a long history of enabling the Nazis at that point, planning to use them as their attack dog in the east. Not only that, the USSR had been pleading for an anti-nazi alliance for a long time and got ignored.

      Ok.

      The USSR isn’t obligated to sabotage it’s own existence because some random unborn Finish person “would’ve preferred to see it”

      Not to mention the UK and Frances commitment turned out to be extremely token, a fact that came as zero suprise to the USSR
