what did the soviets do in eastern europe
Best Answer: The Soviets swept across Eastern Europe during WWII on the move to Germany and after the war they kept their military in Eastern Europe. Stalin was paranoid and wanted to build a bloc of communists states around him so he proped up communist governments in Eastern Europe.n doing so, the USSR liberated a number of eastern European nations. As it did so, Stalin simply kept his armies in those countries until he was satisfied that the governments would be subservient to the Soviet Union.
