What was the reaction of Eastern Europeans to become puppet countries of the Soviet Union after World War II?

My ex-wife was born in Riga, Latvia during the German occupation. Her mother fled Latvia with two children to seek protection in Germany, and left the Democratic Party camp for Australia after the war. In Koala, New South Wales, they moved Japanese prisoners of war out and immigrants in. I think these people must work in positions designated by the government for two years.

In any case, a few years later, they contacted their relatives in a way unknown to the KGB authorities. The problem is that the KGB found the exact addresses of all Russian citizens in Australia.

Slowly, they found that a large number of people in Latvia were wiped out. Latvia has carried out a big cleaning. I learned from a Russian Latvian living near Hornsby in Sydney that anyone who fought alongside the Germans in World War II was sent to the Gulag.

In short, his ex-wife's grandmother, a Russian, was released from Gulag prison and sent to Australia.

I don't know if any of you have read that book about the external history of the KGB, which I bought at the flea market. The book asserts: "We (KGB) control all Russian expatriate organizations in the world."

One thing they do is, for example, if a Latvian dies and does not leave much property to his relatives in Latvia, his relatives will be sent to the gulag concentration camp. The exchange rate of funds entering Russia means that the KGB got about 90% of the funds.

I don't want to say who it is, but I strongly suspect that someone I know was recruited as a spy by Russia.

Some people may ask, what can espionage in Australia bring to Russia during that time?

Russia wants to rule the world. They armed North Vietnam, and we joined in. Russia is very interested in what is happening around Indonesia.

Coincidentally, I have a friend whose wife is the sister of an important person. We had a dinner party and an invited Latvian tried to please my friend's wife. I suspect that the grapevine in Latvia is just a debt collection agency of the KGB, and I want to know the wealth of everyone in the community. At the same time, the KGB also wants to know how they put pressure on Russian nationals for any reason. If there is any disobedience, his relatives in Russia will be sent to the gulag concentration camp.
