Stalin sees Africa campaign shift opening for Axis collapse
Soviet leader praised Allied leaders as first rate organizers of the Africa campaign and said it would relieve German pressure on the Eastern Front. In a second exclusive autographed letter, he reiterated that the Allied effort demonstrates growing strength of the Allies and signals possible disintegration of the Italo German coalition in the near future. He noted it is too early to gauge full relief to the Soviet Union but expected definite relief in the near future.

It claims the campaign undermines Hitlerite Germany, frees France from lethargy, mobilizes anti-Hitler forces, pressures Italy, and paves a second front nearer Germany. It asserts the Red Army fulfills its wartime duty alongside the Allies and implies strong East-West unity toward final victory.
