Image:Belarus 1939 Greeting Soviets.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Small-town residents of the Western Belarus meeting the conquerors. 1939. The Russian text reads "Long Live the great theory of Marx, Engels, Lenin-Stalin" contains spelling error.

Practically in every north-eastern Polish powiat the Red Army was greeted by flowers, transparents, red flags and even orchestras. In almost all cases, such manifestations were not spontaneous, but were organized by activists of Western Belorussian Communist Party (a section of the Communist Party of Poland) ((Polish) Marek Wierzbicki, Stosunki polsko-białoruskie pod okupacją sowiecką (1939–1941). Warsaw. Retrieved 16 July 2007.)
