Abstract

During the Cold War, Roosevelt and Churchill were often targets of Western criticism for its negotiations with Stalin for Europe. At that time Russia was presented as an enigma to them. Today, this ignorance may wonder. The rise of superpowers seems inevitable; ideological enmity, axiomatic; and the Stalinist regime’s brutal nature, crystal clear. However, we must remember the problems that caused the Allies during the war uncertainties about Russia. In the heart of the enigma was the personality of Stalin himself. The major British and American legislators expected the policy of cooperation with the Soviet Union could extend beyond the war. Cold War ended was not producing the result they preferred neither expected.
