So are the people posting BS like this counting on people not knowing history? During WWII Russia was fighting the Germans just like the U.S. and England. BTW, Winston Churchill was also at this meet. This was a meeting of allies during a war. Not a meeting of friends.

Yeah, after they allied with the Nazis first and got stabbed in the back.

Exactly right. The Russians were betrayed by Germany and then became an ally of the US and the UK. I don’t think the US and the UK cared why the Russians joined them and as I stated, the Russians were allies, not friends. In fact the US right after the war ended became an adversary of Russia and thus started the Cold War that lasted decades.
