Why didn't declare France war on Russia, when they invaded Poland, too?

This is really confusing.

The guarantee on Poland had a secret clause referring specifically to German aggression.

>mere technicality

A specific clause contained within an agreement is not a 'technicality'. The response to aggression by Germany was specifically outlined whilst aggression from other European powers was laid out in the form of requiring consultation as and when.

Poland's nefarious character is not only important in understanding the how and whys of entente policy but also what led to the Soviet invasion in the first place and why the Polish victim complex is complete bollocks.

That sounds pretty much like the definition of "technicality".

Quite. If both parties were very specific about that clause, it clearly wasn't unwanted or unexpected, was it?

I'll explain further:

The big rule was:
>"WE PROTECT POLAND WHEN SOMEONE ATTACKS IT!!"

And now comes the technicality:
>"(But only if it is the Germans. Russians etc. can, of course, invade it as much as they please and tradition demands)"
