Germany–Russia relations - Wikipedia
Germany fought against Russia in World War I (1914–1918). Relations were warm in the 1920s, very cold throughout the 1930s, cooperative and friendly in 1939–41, [2] and hostile in 1941–45. In the 1920s both countries co-operated with each other in trade and (secretly) in military affairs.
