We know that early on Stalin really, REALLY didnt wanted war with Germany and was even willing to join the Axis. Germany didnt wanted war with the West either.

Lets say that the non aggression pact is strenghtened, and instead a mutual defense pact is signed which guarantees if one of the 2 gets attacked, the other one will declare war on the aggressor as well.

Under these circumstance where war with Germany (to their knowledgement at least) guaranteed war with the USSR as well, would Britain and France still declare war on Germany over Poland?
