Davies says Soviets not ready to fight Japan now
Former US ambassador Joseph E. Davies urged in New York that the Soviet Union should not be drawn into a Far Eastern war at this time to avoid a pincers move by Germany and Japan. He cited Stalin purges weakening the Red Army and predicted Russia has reduced forces in the Far East while credits Russia’s current offensive to its people, winter conditions, and material shortages in Germany.
