from the lowest of the ranks. he in fact named himself, stalin, which means man of steel. scott bennett, the counter terrorism specialist and former u. s. army analyst is well versed in the complex history of us soviet cooperation in the 2nd world war years you have stolen rise up and quite an effective leadership role under, under war 2 and counteracting the german advances. franklin delano roosevelt. the 32nd you as president, lead the country from 1933. to 1945, franklin roosevelt came from an extraordinarily wealthy family of very high elite socialite family dating back to the 1600s. the roosevelt family. the delano family were old money that had built their fortunes in merchant ah,

ship building other trades. roosevelt was a pragmatist. and when it suited american interests was prepared to cooperate with the soviet union. it was under his rule that you, a soviet diplomatic relations were established in 1933. franklin delano roosevelt is recognized by many in the american historical and academic and political ranks as one of the greatest of 4 term presidents in history. the only president to ever, sir. 4 terms, in fact, for his work in resuscitating the united states after an economic depression that occurred after the fall of the stock market in the 19 twenty's. the big 3 is how the allied 2nd world war leaders were known. they had different personalities, were from very different backgrounds and had opposing views, each defended their own peoples and ruling classes,

1st 1939. but re shaping the world has started long before that. 938. austrian unsure is. the invasion of czechoslovakia and its partition by 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 fell to 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 european politicians who seemed to know it. truth, truth, preserve, well guaranteed, bizarre. processed you for work if consciously put your bushel your finger, squash contractual, like you know, portrait of gonzalez. she cheer west curt unifor. you. judy daughter, gems from a washington re duff's way wor you're breaking school for you. is the calisha, missouri sober boom. shasta, whereas dill could about blood don't. which flow you general school bush. the soviet also was in a st 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. prime minister chamberlain probably tell the british people on his return from munich church hills reply we have sustained a total, unmitigated defeat. those other features, which marked an improvident stewardship for which great britain and france have 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, with the balkan come to explain simmering for some time or so is not she was a sub scope a work ok now quick,

but i'm a little bit more than enough to albanians demanded the cause of a subs changed car license plates. in other words, they recognized cost of the the if you for the wrong, for the hell involved with fell grade, refuse because of a is serbia. so discriminating against serves is a slap in the face, a role to play from the for your, for your off your bill that i think you know there. so there was a gotten it recent bill. it wasn't valid sima dom or i should be able to go below me. i live is, will be in president alexander who teach hasn't ruled out the possibility that the west is waiting for the right moment to strike the republic. wanted to know with all that you're with

now, when i was showing wrong, when i was just a shape out, becomes the answer to 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 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. this has been 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 and elias, but britain and france against hitler. it had been actually throughout the late last half of the 19 thirty's from peter 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. recur to prevent a whirl for sale, it has hitler was weak and knew he would wait. 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, 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. 1973 germany, france, britain and italy conclude the full power packed 1934. the bill suit ski hit to a pack between poland and germany aside. 1965. the naval agreement between britain, a germany is concluded. 1978. bristol 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, moscow. mm. the soviet commerce of a foreign affairs mortgage of and german foreign minister, raven trump signed a non aggression pact. mm hm. the pack made it impossible for nazi germany to fall alliance is with other states. so these over to your yes. so for him done. dust chamberlain on that day should these are fashion tissue. masons are to lam, he knew baxon angland don't frankly the sky bend mas entry did titian ingram from brown dodge, went to my father, italian. out on it, 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. the bill such k, hitler packed along with germany, poland, planned 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. russia, europe 4 should get good gigs reversed luca, cooney, dwaa to explore the new process up of the news before he appeared to mana block up so was before for shipped off without order. no bullock agreed to kill ghastly and you will you be awake? movies gone the your welski did he thought i asked the crushed polish government for is to england. poland ceases to exist as a state in german occupy poland. the most hideous form of terrorism prevails, more than 15000 intellectually does a shot. $300.00 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, a bronze sympathized with the introduction of the 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, they might rather well have occupied moscow. likewise, it quite possible that, that it saved leningrad because the german armies were very close to lemond 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 mannheim 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, we went as 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. mm 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 sales course. i was up by the near france,

a boa colon capital. now sir ford outfit of my cello. but in superior than that you, nor your jip prestige groups, none of them in his work, doctor of historical sciences, alexey is, i of essence is the events of world war 2. the less course i use a if the bullish g mom glare me, of linda shy worf poor, poor shania bruce bustled. monsieur cross, not a mi tescos conyers nice shows so that it's do outdoor water. pretty much door was more than a previous threshold. so george, griff sure plethora guilt ah, with is a policeman. policy in tatters. 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 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 that he didn't like hitler. ah august the 13th 1940. the launch is missive, area take song but you cities the

next night. 80 pussy shad crump attack the key sh in written to refund us operation blitz. last almost 8 months. many with the city suffer catastrophic destruction. churchill. it is everywhere. a tall piles of rubble left by and strikes in factories and hospitals. mm. 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 in line with the british. atlanta assist agenda ah, ah, the united states thinks war is war, but business is business in return for help. and in exchange, buffalo will, will 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 pay for the 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 danced the u. k, his ability to pay he sends a cruise at the cape town where 50000000 pounds of british gold reserves are stored . in desperation, chance you'll rise to roosevelt in the midst of war, great britain, this 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, least up to, to put it off, marketable display. pretty bad. sure. what offering you are in the chair clinic here? must washing 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 want to proofread them in little dice. parker part of it. it came 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 watch it store, 100 war by sham goes them. but it on you, you put of your local ups for your growing younger sister. ah, so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have crazy foundation. let it be an arms race is very dramatic, development only personally and getting to disease. i don't see how that strategy will be successful,

very difficult time. time to sit down and talk with with the devastation they'd be shown every single great step left by the days of relent. shelly, all the power plant, a developing story today i made a tucked film, the you dump a rosie a nuclear power plant by ukrainian forces teen from the you ends. atomic watchdog arrives up to facilitate the russian military phase. it's ready to ensure their security despite the shell. also, i had no matter what my german vote to think, but i want to deliver to the people off the train,
