always going to post this when liberals show their whole ass on world war two and the MR treaty. The western allies literally walked away from collective security and containment of Germany because they sympathized more with Hitler than the Soviets.
David Lloyd George, a member of the British House of Commons who was sympathetic to Germany, stated there that "if Herr Hitler had allowed that to go without protecting his country he would have been a traitor to the Fatherland".
After 1936, the French lost interest, and all of Europe realised that the pact was a dead letter. By 1938, the appeasement policies implemented by British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and French Prime Minister Édouard Daladier ended collective security and further encouraged German aggression. The German Anschluss of Austria in 1938 and Munich Agreement, which led to the dismemberment of Czechoslovakia in 1938 and 1939, demonstrated the impossibility of establishing a collective security system in Europe, a policy advocated by Litvinov. That and the reluctance of the British and the French governments to sign a full-scale anti-German political and military alliance with the Soviet led to the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact between the Soviet Union and Germany in late August 1939, which indicated the Soviet Union's decisive break with France
