- tonymet 10mo agoSoviet Occupation of Europe, "Cold War", which was very hot with arms race, intel, nuclear deployments, naval skirmishes, proxy wars, Yugoslavia War. It didn't end in 2000, really it expanded.
- throw310822 10mo agoThe partition of Europe between the two victors of WW2 (USA and USSR) was part of the peace, not a state of war. The cold war wasn't a war inside Europe but between two rival superpowers; the Yugoslavia war wasn't one between EU countries but a civil war result of a change in external conditions.
- tonymet 10mo agoit wasn't partitioned. USSR invaded and captured that territory in 1939. It was an agreement with Hitler, not Roosevelt. Yalta happened well after everyone had been killed and the dust settled. Roosevelt chickened out. Go visit the Occupation museum in Riga for the actual history, instead of reading US text books.
- tonymet 10mo agoAnd Stalin continued to take territory even later, moving into East Germany, Czechoslovakia, etc . Continuing with military pressure over the later years.
- tonymet 10mo agoIf you're living under an occupied military force, you are still at war, not peace.
- tonymet 10mo agoyou're kidding right.
