Question

Why do you think hitler and stalin signed a non- aggression pact (6 sentences)

Answer 1

Hitler proposed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact so that his eastern border was secured and he could focus all of his efforts on war with the allied powers. Stalin was interested as it gave him more territory with the terms of the Pact. They would both invade Poland and split it between the two countries. Hitler also wanted this Pact so then later he can attack the soviets while they least expected in a famous operation called "Operation Barbarossa".

Answer 2

German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact, also called Nazi-Soviet Nonaggression Pact, German-Soviet Treaty of Nonaggression, Hitler-Stalin Pact, Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, (August 23, 1939), nonaggression pact between Germany and the Soviet Union that was concluded only a few days before the beginning of World War II and which divided eastern Europe into German and Soviet spheres of influence.

Or:

The Soviet Union had been unable to reach a collective-security agreement with Britain and France against Nazi Germany, most notably at the time of the Munich Conference in September 1938. By early 1939 the Soviets faced the prospect of resisting German military expansion in eastern Europe virtually alone, and so they began searching about for a change of policy. On May 3, 1939, Soviet leader Joseph Stalin fired Foreign Minister Maksim Litvinov, who was Jewish and an advocate of collective security, and replaced him with Vyacheslav Mikhaylovich Molotov, who soon began negotiations with the Nazi foreign minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop. The Soviets also kept negotiating with Britain and France, but in the end Stalin chose to reach an agreement with Germany.

Hope this helps:)
