Which Nazi Germany did anyway, just a short time later.

It seems that holding joint parades, signing secret pacts, sacrificing Comintern, etc, still did not help much.

Neither did appeasement. The correct response to Ribbentrop's suggestions was war on Germany, just like the correct choice at the Munich agreement was war on Germany. Beyond that, you're just choosing between bad options.
