In Russia the locals and the army faced the German army to defend their country and its population (including the Jews)
The Jews were persecuted during World War II by the Germans who, influenced by the ideology of racial and ethnic superiority, tried to impose their race and culture throughout the world since they considered themselves perfect.
The Jews of Poland were the most affected during World War II because this was the first country invaded by the German army. Ghettos were established in major Polish cities to easily control the Jewish population.
In the case of Russia, the Germans had great difficulty entering Russian territory. However, once they were able to invade their influence it was not important and they did not manage to get past the city of Stalingrad where they were finally defeated.
The Jewish population of Russia had greater opportunities to escape and hide from the Germans. Additionally, the Russian army had the objective of defending its population (including the Jews) so in this country the effects on this population were much less than in Poland.
