Wouldn't that count as slave labour?
Not according to the Allies at the Yalta conference.
By the late 1940s, the only people claiming that the labor enjoyed by the Soviets at the hands of captured Nazis was "slavery" - were Nazis.
By all allied accounts, using German labor to pay reparations was deemed acceptable given how the Soviets had just sacrificed 27 million people.

Forced labour hmm. I mean it definitely sounds like slave labour, just lawful form of it. The article does have a quote:
Yes but you see when the Communists do it it's "based". /s
Always check which instance someone is using. If it's lemmy.ml it's people who worship Soviet Russia and China
