> That's not historically accurate.
It is historically completely accurate, as lived by the brother of my grandfather who was one of those forced laborers. Never saw a judge or a court.
> Countries can make whatever laws they want.
They can, but if lawless and brazen enough they can also 'convince' you of anything regardless of laws, which is what often happened. Written laws were not worth very much back then.

Born on the oppposite side of the Iron Curtain, I did not grow up with the same Cold War info like you, I presume.
> but comparing that to the Spanish conquest of the Americas is night and day
It really is not. Just the Holodomor killed millions of people and that is just an episode.
