czechoslovakia his allies, great britain and france, are accused of betraying it for the sake of peace with nazi germany. poland and hungary took part in the partition of czechoslovakia. some in europe felt at poland, had enthusiastically taken part in the robbery and destruction of the check. a slovak state u. s. president roosevelt had no objection to either the austrian angeles or the partition of czechoslovakia. the united states had no desire to interfere in europe's conflict. the world was sliding into a major war, but churchill and stolen was the only the amal editions. his seem to know it. those things pretty well guaranteed or bizarre processed. you explore why give consciously a put your boss, you'll get figure scores, contractual like, you know, for sure, because she choo, westcott, judy, for you to the daughter jim sama,

washington rudolph war. you're breaking school for you. is the girl that you should were just sober? boom. shasta, whereas dill could about blood dornbush flowing general school boost the soviet ortho was in a thanked, ignored events took their courses. if soviet russia didn't exist for that, a heavy price would soon be paid in munich, britain and germany signed a mutual non aggression pact that was the culmination of the policy to appease hitler. ah, i have brought you peace, the prime minister chamberlain promptly tell the british people on his return from munich joe chills reply we have sustained a total unmitigated defeat. ah those are the features which marked an improvident

stewardship for which great britain and france at dearly to pay churchill beak realised. and he was alone in the british leadership that this policy of what's called appeasement. you know, encouraging hitler. ah, had been a big mistake. ah, oh, connected the we are, the threats and the threats escalate to a big part of it is the way in which also information knowledge is being restricted and could street the imposition of certain restrictions on the flow of information gram. it gets to be counted. it cannot be that the single narrative to tell months what's happening in the well

with ah, it was clear to churchill, the redrawing of european borders had begun. war was inevitable. but as he wasn't a cabinet minister, he couldn't change anything much later. churchill, right? those were the he is of my desolate solitude. the situation in munich was also noticed in the united states. some often said that hitler must have fools chamberlain at gunpoint, france and england have concluded a shameful peace. march

1939. the soviet union had a proposal for the western countries to form an anti fascist blog to counter hitler's intentions, dissolved and trying to rally the west, make a stand with them against fascism. they opposed munich. they oppose allowing hitler into czechoslovakia, but nobody would do that. so wasn't just in 1039 when the soviet proposed an alliance, but britain and france against hitler. it had been actually throughout the late last half of the 19th thirty's from new teacher clinic writer and professor of history at the american university in washington, dc. analyze is the balance of power that developed in pre war europe. quarterstaff, hitler, recruiter, prevent to world war 2. it has hitler was weak and he would weigh and he was bluffing. and assuming that the west was not going to stand up to him at the west,

was hoping in many rural elements in the west, we're hoping that he was just going to go east. so in the thirty's, the soviets are the ones who are most strongly opposed to the nazis. negotiations between the ussr written and france to establish an anti fascist blog, reached an impasse because secret british german negotiations were taking place at the same time. in return for guaranteeing the integrity of the british empire, britain offered hitler. freedom of action in the east for britain to survive from russia, had to be sacrificed churchill objects. if for instance, mister chamberlain, on receipt of the russian offer had replied, yes, let us 3 band together and break hitler's neck. history might have gone a different way. it was clear to starlin that the western

powers were ignoring his proposals and could no longer be relied upon. and by 1939, almost all of europe had already signed the agreements with hitler. 1933 germany, france, britain and italy conclude the full power packed 1934. the bill suit ski hit to a pack between poland and germany as site. 1935, the naval agreement between britain, a germany is concluded. 1978. bristol, france and italy agree to divide czechoslovakia between germany, poland, and hungary. 1939 non aggression treaties assigned between germany, latvia, and estonia. august the 22nd 1939,

moscow. mm. the soviet commerce of a foreign affairs, molotov, and german foreign minister, reuben trump, signed a non aggression pact. the pack made it impossible for nazi germany to fall alliances with other states. with these of it, the youngest too for him done. thus chamberlain, on that day should these are fashion tissue masons or to them. he knew. but baxon, england on franklin that had been present did commission england from crown dodge, went to my father italian i went on with the united states, continued its policy of appeasing imperial japan. the americans held on to the hope that japan would re focus his attention on the usaa. the soviet union did not want to be caught fighting a 2 front war war with japan and the east, and also

a war with germany in the west. and they knew that the germans were going to attack sooner or later. also, when the british and french refused to form an alliance against germany, went to saudi in the polish government also refused. on january the 26th, 1934 in poland became the 1st european country to conclude unknown aggression treaty with germany. that they'll such k, hitler packed along with germany, poland planned to a tank the ussr. poland must not remain idle at this historic moment. the main goal is to weaken and crush russia, but on september the 1st 1939, poland was attacked by germany militia, europe, for chicago. did you get reversed reca? cooney?

dwaa is when you and you brought that proof. the news before you play the marble or upsetting was before for shipped off with story. oh, bullock or group the actual birth 3, and you will you through it of all these corner, your wealthy territory. as the crushed polish government is to england, poland ceases to exist as a state in german occupy poland. the most hideous form of terrorism prevails. more than 15000 intellectual leaders are shot 300 in one place . at another, a group of drunken german offices are said to have shot 70 hostages. 130 sinks 12 or 13 year old boys, a butchered and just 3 weeks later, stone incense, his army into poland, which is lost. sovereignty england

and france sympathized with the introduction of soviet troops. it was vital for the soviet union to push the german army as far west as possible to buy time and gather forces from all corners of its colossal empire. the molotov reverend truck packed ended up being a crucial factor in a soviet and ultimately an allied victory. if i hadn't had that extra 2 or 300 kilometers to travel might better well have occupied moscow. likewise, it quite possible that, that it saved leningrad goes. the german armies were very close to lemons grad as well. hitler had already declared that he was going to kill all the inhabitants of leningrad and destroy the city and give it to finland. the finish later marshall manheim was a 100 percent contributor of that. meanwhile,

honoring his promise to the american people not to get involved in the war, roosevelt passes the neutrality act. during this period, the wind is clearly shows hostility to was the soviet union. by the spring of 1940 all relations between the 2 countries of the americans remain neutral, which rose without later regretted because he understood this was the time to stop the nazis. and the said, the fascist forces lay the 10th 1940 german troops invade france, and in just a month hitler enters paris. most of the country is occupied and the french army is no moral. less out, of course, you was up by junior france, a boa colon capital l, sir for outfit of my cello. but in cpr is that you, nor your yet prestige groups? none of them. in his work, doctor of historical sciences, alexey is, i have

a sense is the events of world war 2 years. let's go say you were a bullish jim alarmed leah. mimi of linda shy wolf, poor poor shania. bruce bustled, miss chair, cross, not a mi tescos conyers nice shows so that it's do outdoor water pretty much door was more than a producer. socials for george, griff sure plethora dealership. ah, with his appeasement policy in chances, prime minister chamberlain is forced to attend to his resignation. on may, the 10th 1940 the day germany invades france. winston churchill becomes the new british prime minister. i have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat. he replaced chamberlain because as it is well known,

chamberlain did not want a war with germany. churchill, it appears was at a very different view. he never wavered from wanting and insisting on war are pursuing the war with germany. he didn't trust the germans. he didn't trust him, but he didn't like hitler. ah. august the 13th 19. 40 inches mess if anyway, take some but you cities the next night. 80 british and cromwell attack the key. sh. in written

of bombs news operation blitz last almost 8 months. many with this, if he suffer catastrophic destruction. churchill, it is everywhere. a tall piles of rubble left by and strikes in factories and hospitals. it gave speeches, works on military plans. for his age, judging only 60 sakes, he himself would have rushed into the battle. mm. but england cannot withstand germany. le churchill asked roosevelt for help. roosevelt had no affection for churchill. he had no trust of the british. in fact, saw the british has penetrating much of the united states state department

intelligence agencies, academic institutions, all to more or less influence the united states and government and academia, to being much more of in the line with the british. atlanta assist agenda ah, ah, the united states thinks war is wall with businesses business in return for help. and in exchange, buffalo global one destroy is the u. s. demands the right to use. 8 british military base is in the atlantic. ah, we didn't receive anything from the u. s. that we didn't painful in 1940 alone written pays the united states for and a half $1000000.00 in cash. a huge amount of money at the time. when roosevelt down

to the u. k. his ability to pay, he sends it crews at the cape town where $50000000.00 pounds of british gold reserves are stored. in desperation, chance you'll rise to roosevelt. in the midst of war, great britain is close to bankruptcy. roosevelt seized no benefits in britain's defeat. after which the us would run the risk of facing war to talk about boca dorman, liam leaves up, but at the smart federal display. pretty bad. sure. what offering you are in that jeff nick here. must lotion of congress share on bill up or is not the criminal lawyer still cargo? sasha? got it, don't. we won't display a bed is just lunch to bumper to show them the little dice parker part up picking from our sh. however, lindley supplies are immediately entangled in financial obligations. tustin your bully sports on the doorstep or near was our shirts, their wash up watching store,

100 war by sham goes them, but it on your ear. but if your local ups for your growing young, this is jim, ah, ah, any meaningful relationship is based on the following trust. this is absent in russia's relationship with the west of essentially, moscow does not being western leaders to be good faith actors. this is the lesson learned since the end of a cold war. as we all know, raining, trust is very difficult, if not impossible. with,

with churchill goal was to preserve the british empire. the united states wanted an open world in which american dollar could penetrate, which american trade would have access everywhere and to market had to labor, had 2 resources around the globe. so they had very different kinds of conflict. the interest with john chill will install in of an impending attack on the u. s. s. huh. in the face of great danger, he seeks an alliance with russia. starlin doesn't reply. he doesn't trust

churchill. with at 4 o'clock this morning, a hitler attacked and invaded russia. suddenly, with our declaration, the war, without even an elgin made him, the german bomb rain down from the sky above the russian set in russian danger is therefore our danger and the danger of the united state school. 2 days later, u. s. president roosevelt awesome gives a speech supporting the ussr but there are other political forces in the united states.
