As for the German-Soviet nonaggression pact, it was a move that Stalin was forced into, as France and the UK refused to acknowledge the nazi threat and make an alliance. The dominant class in these countries wanted nazi germany to invade the USSR so they could then come in and rule over the weakened eastern people and territories.
This is hinted at here, for ex: https://www.britannica.com/event/German-Soviet-Nonaggression-Pact
