Question

Would you regard the manner in which USSR took control of the Eastern European countries as justified?

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Yes. I would.

What I could say regarding the manner in which the USSR took control of the Eastern European countries is that it was not justified, but understandable.

It was not justified because no country has the right to intervene or take possession of another country. Not in modern times. Understandable because Soviet leader, General Joseph Stalin, considered these countries as a buffer zone in the case western European countries decided or tried to invade the Soviet Union.

That is why the USSSR took control of countries such as Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, West Germany, and Bulgaria.
