I’ve read a bit about Stalin and I’ve never heard of these letters. A quick search hasn’t turned anything up—does anyone know where this comes from?

I’d like to be able to say something more substantial than “you’re wrong and don’t have sources.”

    Allegedly hitler send two letters to stalin roughly in January and may of 1941 (so 5 and 1 month before invasion), saying that German troops were training for the invasion of british isles, and were hiding from their spies/sabotage, and then, in may, that some generals might do something stupid and not react to provocations. I think in rise of third reich they are sourced from some german archive, and apparently zhukov has also referenced them
