Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill
When was it?
November 1943
What did they focus on?
The majority of talk at the Tehran conference focussed on how the Second World War would be won.
Land consequence -
It was agreed Russia could keep land in Eastern Europe including Poland if they won the war to take the land away from Germany in order to keep it as weak as possible.
International relations consequence -
It was agreed that an international organisation should be created to settle arguments between countries using discussion rather than war.
Military consequences -
The USA and Britain would launch a second attack on Germany so the German army would have to reduce its troops in the East against Russia to fight in the West. Again, this would give Russia a chance to take more land away from Germany.
