germany, poland, and hungary, 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 roguery and destruction of the czechoslovakia. 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 to seems pretty well, greg, you know, would drop off su, 4 work if don't justly put your boss you for your ski horse contractual like, you know for sure. i've got those sheets you westcott unifor. you daughter,

jim sama, washington rudolph war. your british school. so user calisha, missouri, saba boom. just to what i still good about bulletin, butch flowing, you diesel fuel blast 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. a munich britain and germany signed a mutual non aggression pact. that was the culmination of the policy to appease hitler. i have wrote you piece the prime minister chamberlain probably tell the british people on his return from munich church hills reply we have sustained a total, an unmitigated defeat. oh,

those are the features which marked i named providence stewardship, for which great britain and france have dearly to pay churchill beak realised on. and he was alone in the british leadership that this policy of what's called appeasement. you know, encouraging hitler. had been a big mistake. ah ah, the oh, i want a proud

name becomes the advocate. an engagement it was the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. 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 food chain lin 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 block 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 in to czechoslovakia, but nobody would do that. so wasn't just in 1039 when the soviet proposed and elias, but britain and france against hitler. it had been actually throughout the late last half of the 19 thirty's from peter couldn't make russia and professor of history at the american university in washington dc analyze is the balance of power that developed in pre war europe. kind of stuff had that we could have prevent a world portal because hitler was weak and knew he would wait. and he was bluffing

. and assuming that the west was knocking his band up to him at the west was hoping in many all elements in the west for hopefully 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. 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 agreements with hitler. 1933 germany, france, britain and italy conclude the full power packed 1934. the bill so ski, hitler packed between poland and germany aside. 1935. the naval agreement between britain and germany is concluded. 19, associate. britain, france and italy agree to defy czechoslovakia between germany, poland, and hungary. 1939 non aggression treaties assigned between germany, latvia, and estonia. august the 22nd 1939,

a 2 front war war with japan and the east, and also a war of 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, were to study 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. the pale such k, hitler packed along with germany, poland plan to attack 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.

a bronze sympathize with the introduction of soviet truths 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 and a soviet and ultimately an allied victory. if i hadn't had that extra 2 or 300 kilometers to travel, they might rather well have occupied moscow. likewise, it's 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 gonna kill all the inhabitants of leningrad and destroy the city and give it to finland. the

finish leader marshall mannheim was a 100 percent can shaver 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 one is clearly shows hostility towards the soviet union. by the spring of 1940 all relations between the 2 countries of rosa, the americans remain neutral, which rose about 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 into his paris, most of the country is occupied and the french army is no moral less sales course. he was up by junior france, a boa holden to computer last your fiance of my chela. but in cpr,

and sweat you replace chamberlain because as it is well known, chamberlain did not want to war with germany. churchill, it appears was at a very different view. he never wavered from wanting and insisting on war or 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 1940 a little which is massive area. take sandwiches. cities for the next night. 80 percent crop attack the key sh in which is
