• February 1945:
• Key Issue = how to treat those nations that was under Nazi occupation ⇢ Allies and
Stalin’s ideas of a free and democratic government was very different from theirs
•
• WWII coming to close⏤ defeat of Germany = strong possibility ⇢ ideological
di erences bt. USSR & Western allies began to surface:
• Stalin (USSR), Churchill (Britain) and Roosevelt (USA) met to plan post-
war settlement → great tension behind o cial cordiality → agreements
reached = temporary compromises that didn’t settle bigger issues

• Germany & city of Berlin divided into 4 zones →administered by USA, USSR,
Britain and France (respectively)⇢however no agreement on uniform system of
gov. in di . zones
• USSR occupied Poland ⇢promised free democratic elections to be held →
HOWEVER installed pro-Soviet provisional gov. ⇢Allied Declaration of Liberated
Europe formally committed USSR to follow policy of democracy in countries they
occupied.

join:
• United Nations (aim was to keep peace)
• War against Japan after war in Europe over
• Stalin = determined to create against future German aggression bc USSR su ered
terrible losses during war
• ’Big Three’ agreed Eastern Europe = Soviet sphere of in uence
• Issues:
• No agreements reached regarding Germany paying reparations
• Stalin:
• Wanted xed sum = allies thought was to much
