 answer all questions a minimum 200 words! then agree with the statment below in a minimum of 200 words also!

  • Why does Molotov believe a “second front” should be opened in 1942? 
    • The Soviet Union was being attacked by Germany and require assistance. As Hitler was an enemy to all, it was in the best interest to aid the Soviet Union and draw Germany away. 
  • If such a front is opened, what does Molotov predict? 
    • Molotov believed that a second front would fend off and draw away the Germens from the Soviet Union. 
  • If such a front is not opened, what does he fear might occur? 
    • Molotov feared that their military, the Red Army, might not be able to defend against the oncoming attacks from Germany. In the near future, they will weaken while Hitler grew in strength. Germany will have more troops as well as foods and raw materials from Ukraine. In addition, oil wells from Caucasus will also fall under Germany. The possibility of Hitler ruling an entire continent was very plausible if the Soviet Union fell. 
  • Given that a second front in France was not opened until June, 1944, what do you think the effect of that delay may have had on longer-term U.S.–Soviet relations? 
    • The delay of a second front was due to the reluctance of Great Britain to allow such actions, or at the very least, proceed quickly to allow a second front to be opened in time. Although after Russia’s victory at Kursk, it seem the Red Army is capable of fighting off the Germany on their own. However, with a vast number of losses in human lives, it was clear the assistance was needed. 
    • During the final “Big Three” conference, it was clear the Soviets were angered by the delay in assistance. The Soviet felt that they did the majority of the fighting against Germany. It was also noted that neither the United States nor Great Britain trusted Stalin. But in the end, peace prevailed and the United Nations were formed to ensure world peace. However, hints of unsettlement lead to the Cold Wars in the future. As our book pointed out, the post math of World War II was “peace, but not harmony.”
