Yeah, that's what I meant.Generalplan Ost...
You are excluding a lot of the killing. And in Eastern Europe that's basically almost everyone, since they are undesirable/non-Aryans

Molotov's predecessor was Maxim Litvinov, a Jew.What about the possibility of Stalin carrying out some sort of anti-Semitic purge to seal his alliance with Hitler with prominent Soviet Jews being accused of being part of some Trotskyist conspiracy (well, Trotsky was a Jew) and shot with many average Soviet Jews being sent to the Gulag? Even OTL, after the Holocaust being revealed and the proclaimation of Israel, Stalin was planning a similar purge against Jews in the USSR prior to his death.
Got to do the obligatory pointing out that the whole point of Hitler's movement was 1) get rid of the Jews, 2) conquer the USSR for Lebensraum.
You have to get a scenario where the Nazis actually agree to let the USSR in, which surely means Hitler's gone. May mean the Nazis are and the Wehrmacht has taken over. Or something.
In any case, the change that allows the USSR in will have massive other knock on effects, and so the question can't really be answered until we know what the PoD is.
