Such a shocking action, after only little thing like The Great Purge and active hostile rhetorics from Russia ... and Holodomor.
This is ridiculous point of view that casts Russia as victim when other countries react to its aggression - whether aggression outside or inside. Russia 1935 and Germany 1936 were not that dissimilar, you know. Except Russia more bloody at that point.
