Why Didn't Great Britain and France Declare War on the Soviet Union?

by Yelchor

In the prelude to World War 2 France and Great Britain had gone into a pact with Poland, vowing to protect its sovereignty. They immediately declared war on Germany when they invaded, but it seems often brushed aside the fact that the Soviet Union did the exact same thing at the exact same time. Weren't France and Great Britain obligated to respond to Soviet aggression in the same measure?

So as the title reads, why didn't they?
