Russia will assuredly be defeated: Anglo-American government assessments of Soviet war potential before operation Barbarossa / Kahn, Martin   Journal Article
Kahn, Martin Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract An understanding of why almost all Anglo-American Government officials believed in a Soviet defeat as a result of a German attack can be reached by analyzing US and British Government sources (State Department, Foreign Office, Military, and other) from 1939-41. The sources reveal much detail about the perceived weakness of Soviet war potential, and in what specific respects the Anglo-Americans underestimated Soviet strength. The assessments were in most cases far from reality and as much about economic shortcomings as about military weakness.
