- POTSDAM, JUL-AUG 1945
- STALIN, ATLEE AND TRUMAN (didn't get on as well as the other leaders)
- Stalin found out about the atom bomb which made him furious because it was kept a secret. He thought it was a warning to the USSR. Truman wasn't afraid to cause conflict between USA and USSR because he believed he had the ultimate weapon. This is how the 'arms race' started.
- Nazi party was banned and war criminals would be punished
- a river would be a border from Poland to Germany
- USA and UK denied Stalin a naval base. Stalin thought the allies mistrusted him
- Stalin wanted reparations from Germany and was suspicious to why the others wanted to protect it
