Yalta Alliance 1945 Original Photo. Roosevelt, Churchill, Stalin. PSA Type 1

The Yalta Conference was a critical meeting held in February 1945 during  the end of World War II, where the Allied leaders—Franklin D. Roosevelt (United States), Winston Churchill (United Kingdom), and Joseph Stalin (Soviet Union)—met to plan the postwar order. Taking place in Yalta, Crimea, the conference aimed to address key issues such as the division of Germany and Berlin into occupation zones, the establishment of a reparation system, and plans for the formation of the United Nations.

The leaders also discussed the postwar fate of Eastern Europe, with Stalin securing influence over much of the region, raising concerns about Soviet dominance. Agreements included the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany, Soviet entry into the war against Japan (as support for the upcoming major U.S. offensive), and democratic elections for liberated European nations. The Yalta Conference is often viewed as a precursor to Cold War tensions.
