Hi, Robert Bashe!

  ak>> In 1939 the USSR had returned the captured territories _strictly

Both WWars ended with a division of German heritage. After WW1 Germany 
lost its vast overseas territories and many other territories. Russia 
didn't participate in the afterWW1 pie division. Russia itself was 
chunked by Poland as if Russia was a German ally. ;-)

After WW2 Poland as a country who fought Hitler had got some German 
territories as a reward. The USSR for its efforts in WW2 got Koenigsberg.

Bye, Robert!
