        The German invasion began on 1 September 1939, one week after the signing of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact between Germany and the Soviet Union, and one day after the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union had approved the pact.

        I wonder what you think the pact is talking about if not the invasion that happened right after.

          Ok, so you started by saying the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was where they planned to invade Poland together. Now you’re saying it doesn’t, it just references some alleged plan from elsewhere that you have not provided. Again, begging the question: your assertion that the pact constitutes a plan to co-invade Poland requires you to assume they already had to plan to invade Poland that the pact is secretly referencing.

          Putting aside that even after the Soviet archives opened, nobody has been able to find a single record of actual strategic coordination between the two armies in this alleged “coordinated invasion”

            It’s true that the invasion wasn’t coordinated more than Germans informing of their invasion and Soviets making their own plans for their invasion. So joint invasion after USSR joined it, but not coordinated.
