The Yalta Conference: The History of the Allied Meeting that Shaped the Fate of Europe After World War II by Charles River Editors
Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 2.31 MB
Overview: Separated by vast gulfs of political, cultural, and philosophical divergence, the three chief Allied nations of World War II – the United States, the Soviet Union, and Great Britain – attempted to formulate a joint policy through a series of three conferences during and immediately after the conflict. The second meeting, named the Yalta Conference after its Black Sea venue, occurred in February 1945 and was both the most well-known and most influential of them all.
Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich had scant time remaining when the “Big Three” met to discuss the future of Germany, Europe, and the postwar world as a whole. No doubt existed regarding the war’s outcome; the Americans had shattered the Wehrmacht’s desperate last throw in the west, the Ardennes Offensive, during the Battle of the Bulge in the weeks immediately preceding Yalta, and the Soviet front lay just 50 miles east of Berlin, with the Red Army preparing for its final push into the Reich’s capital after a successful surprise winter campaign.
