Wow, you're doing some serious revisionism here.
A non-aggression treaty literally is that, they were enemies and it bought time for Russia to arm itself.
Keep focussing and obsessing on that and misrepresenting it to fit your narrative.
It's a small detail in the big picture and mostly brought up by the those idiots promoting the laughable horseshoe theory.
Same as how they say nazis were socialist bcs of their name.
In no way could those clear enemies be seen as 'aligned' and definitely not from something you imagine and want to see in that pact.
It is the Soviets who went to war with the nazis of Germany and of your fascist country that was most certainly aligned with them, had nazi troops there and fought on their side.
I'm done here
A non-aggression pact can be just that. This one also included additional provisions, such as dividing Poland between them. When you're carving up Poland together and shaking hands at the pre-set dividing line, it's not really reaching very far to say the two countries in question are aligned. They were certainly aligned when it came to dividing Poland.
