Churchill and Roosevelt argued that any attempt to land troops in Western Europe would result in heavy casualties. Until the Soviet's victory at Stalingrad in January, 1943, Stalin had feared that without a second front, Germany would defeat them. Its common knowledge my friend.
Second Front |
I am quite familiar with this information Pact, notice how after Stalingrad the second front was no longer a priority to Stalin as it has been in the opening 6 moths of Barbarossa. As Stavka knew by now that they could defeat the Axis's without a second front.
But lets not forget that the Allies too needed Stalin's help and asked for it in 44'.
