                Only Afghanistan was an invasion and I oppose it, soviets did wrong there. Hungary and Czechoslovakia wont be called invasion because it was to suppress a west backed coup, and death toll was nothing much. Vietnam certainly no, on the contrary they helped vietcong fight the french, american invaders and win the civil war
