Oh, so the USA shouldn’t have given up Western Europe.I've seen plenty of people not happy about the Soviets getting half of Europe.
What would you have offered them?
Cold distain for their alliance with Hitler.
OK, then the Soviets would have presented less resistance in the east and Hitler could divert more forces to the west
Do you think FDR could have negotiated with Soviets to give up the territory they had fought and died for?
The Soviets had just suffered from a devastating invasion that cost them tens of millions of lives. Their cities and infrastructure were ruined.
They were not going to allow belligerent nations on their borders again.
They made sure those captured countries were in compliance with Soviet doctrine
We liberated France, Italy, West Germany and made sure that Western democracies took hold.
LOL!!! "in compliance".
