> I don't defend Russia here,
Yes, that is exactly what you are doing.
> Just trying to point that it's not black and white,
Exactly. That's called relativism or whataboutism, and is a typical tactic in the defence of evil.
> There are many subltleties to discuss.
Only if one is trying to defend evil by focusing on irrelevant "subtleties" so as to distract from the actual issue.
> But yes, if you forget what happened from 1939
You mean when the Soviet Union unprovokedly invaded Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland?
> to 1943, you can look in horror how evil Soviet Union invades Germany.
Just because the Nazis were even better than Russia at being evil doesn't make Russia good.
