True or False:

There existed a secret portion of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact that was not disclosed to the rest of the world until the Nuremburg trials of 1945. This so called "Secret Protocol" had drawn out which portions of Poland would go to Germany and which would go to Russia (U.S.S.R.).

False.

The reasoning is the splitting of Poland in the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact actually occurred in 1939, where the two nations invaded Poland. It was publicly known, but the allies did not pay too much attention to the Soviet invasion.


Hope this helps!
