Stalin wanted to create a buffer zone full of communist satellite nations to prevent another invasion of Russia, similar to what happened during Operation Barbarossa, in which Adolf Hitler had ordered an invasion of the U.S.S.R, costing millions of Soviet Casualties.

After the Soviet Union lost twenty million soldiers in WW2, Stalin wanted to make buffer zones around friendly states so they would never be invaded again.
