Well , Germany and Poland had non-agression pact , which was voided by Hitler in 1938 .
SU and Poland already had a non-agression pact too (since 1932) . Besides Poland had Mutual Assistance Treaty with UK and France .
Of course it was smart move from Stalinīs part . He was IMO much smarter man than carpet-munching hysteric in Germany .
And Baltic states did exactly what you suggested and the result was ... oh , yeah , Stalin violated every aspect of pacts within 4 months , brought in 6-7 times the troops over agreed numbers , staged coups etc.
At least Poland went down fighting , with flying colours . Shame on us .
