Russia said on Thursday that it planned to build close ties with North Korea in all areas, a day after South Korea, Japan and the United States condemned what they said were weapons supplies from Pyongyang to Moscow.
Ayup. Welcome to the madness. The gist of the idea is usually “Lenin was a German spy, sent to destabilise Russia, collapse it and make it lose the war”. That’s because multiple territories had seceded from the now former Russian Empire (i.e. Poland, Finland), and some territories were given up as part of the Brest-Litovsk treaty (look up the terms of it, if you ever get tired of hearing how Germany was “humiliated” by Versailles treaty).
I never heard of the Brest-Litovsk treaty (in school we only learned about the treaty of Versailles) and, my god, they paid the Germans 300 million??? And so much territory lost too…
