So, I was finishing up Lyudmilla Pavlochenko's autobiography (which I strongly reccomend), and there was one section where she met then prime Minister Winston churchill and his wife. Something I found surprising was one of her reasons as to why she was surprised to be meeting with him.

"On hearing this, we were at first bewildered. What had Soviet newspapers not written about Mr.Churchill during the pre war years! He was referred to as an inveterate enemy of the socialist order and the young workers and peasant state...He was blamed for the so called Munich Agreement with hitler and Mussolini in 1938 (although it was not churchill at all who signed it)."

It's that last sentence that confuses me. Obviously churchill was a fairly notable supporter of early Italian fascism and such, but I thought churchill was fairly famous for opposing the aforementioned Agreement (which is also what google shows, although obviously that wasn't a throughough investigation). Am I missing something or was that just (somewhat justifiable) Pravda zealoutry?
