Just to add to wittmann, the Russians are played with different political rules on each map (Europe/Pacific). They are still one power though, so you can send units from the Euro side to the Pac side if you want. For example if you are at war w/Japan you can send Russian ground and air units that start on the Euro map into China to help prop them up (because the Chinese are also at war w/Japan). You could even send those Russian ftrs to Burma or India (via China) once the UK Pac is at war with Japan (but just because you can doesn’t mean you should LOL)
Moving through friendly neutrals
-
Columbia and Brazil are pro-Allies (Axis attacked true neutrals), and the US is at war.
Two American mechanised infantry are in Central America.
One mechanised infantry moves and activates Colombia.
Now obviously the mechanised infantry in Colombia can’t move further.
But can the other mechanised infantry then move into Brazil? Thank you!

Rulebook, Europe 1940.2 page 10:
“Friendly neutrals may not be attacked, and air units
may not fly over them. They can be moved into (but
not through) as a noncombat move by land units of a
power that is at war (see “Noncombat Move,” page 22).”As all movement happens simultaneously both Mech Inf units move to Colombia at the same time. No unit is allowed to move through Colombia to Brazil, then.
Also remember (page 10 following the above):
"This moves the territory out of its neutral status at the
end of the Noncombat Move phase, however. "So Colombia becomes US controlled territory not before all moves are done!
