Russia and Germany in the postwar balance of power
The article analyzes Soviet aims in Europe with a focus on exploiting the German question to sway Western Allies. It notes Russia’s bid for German sympathy, Byrnes’ counterplay repudiation of Wallace, and the push to restrict Russian expansion while preparing for the foreign ministers’ meeting in New York. It warns that Tito’s Yugoslavia may press a pinprick policy and the Dardanelles issue lingers in propaganda.
