Plenty of Stalins soldiers (spatially the colonial subjects) who were released by the Allies did not want to go back to the USSR, but they were made to go back all the same. I guess they knew what was waiting for them.

There is a movie, "Enemy At The Gates" in which there is a scene where Soviet sniper Koulikov (Ron Perlman) explains how he lost all of his teeth. He says he was sent by Stalin to Germany for some reason and that when he returned, they tortured him and beat him and knocked out his teeth because "everybody who had contact with the Germans were suspected as spies", I'm paraphrasing here. It didn't matter that Koulikov went to Germany on Stalin's orders. Simple contact with Germans was enough to make a person a suspected spy. The same held true with POWs returning from German captivity. They had been "corrupted by contact".


 
If you were a Soviet prisoner of the Germans you likely died of starvation. If you were lucky enough to survive and be repatriated back to the Soviet Union, you were either executed or sent to the Gulag, as Stalin's paranoia would not allow them to be free men.

The same thing that happened to the Soviet POW's who were repatriated after the Winter War. They were sent to die in Siberia.

ps
1) many koba´s GULAG camps (uranium mines ) were worst than Nazi death camps
2) 1945 was time when the BITCH WAR STARTED = pure hell for the political prisoners

Most of them shot out of hand, others were sent to Siberia. Very few of them ever saw their family again. Look at how long it took for the former Soviet Union to return their German P.O.W.'s.
 
Titty Winkle deflecting desperately as his Nazi brothers take a terrible beating . Most useless counter offensive in modern history , Titty ? Was it 70 000 dead in the Bakhmut Meat Grinder ?

USSR's prisoners "rescued" by Stalin. How did that oxymoron happen? FDR was a dying man but his handlers knew Stalin was a thug and his rabble were blood thirsty looters and pillagers and yet Ike's army was held back from liberating Berlin while Stalin's hoard looted and raped their way through the city. WTF happened?
