Quote:
Because of Poland ? Why didn't England also declare war on Russia then ? After all, Russia and Germany had divided Poland between them, and was then attacked and invaded from both sides.

The agreement Britain had with Poland only covered invasion by Germany....
1. (a) By the expression "a European Power" employed in the Agreement is to be understood Germany.
If it was a country other than Germany then.....
(b) In the event of action within the meaning of Article 1 or 2 of the Agreement by a European Power other than Germany, the Contracting Parties will consult together on the measures to be taken in common.
So
(a) gives, declare war.
(b) gives, lets talk about it.
