What if Stalin took a more hands off attitude. Keeping the USSR neutral towards the Axis powers while encouraging local Communist parties to do what seems most popular in their own country.

It is hard to imagine Stalin doing this, however, Stalin managed to remain very correct in its neutrality toward Japan for several years during WWII while Communist-led resistance movements sprouted in Japanese-occupied Asia.

Does such a Stalin/COMINTERN stance lead to earlier Soviet-Nazi warfare?

What does it do to the political activities and popular perceptions of the Communist Party in the various European democracies?
