The Cold War begins: While the army and navy of the United states are in Africa, Europe and the Pacific, fighting “for a world in which this [n]ation, and all that this [n]ation represents, will be safe for our children,” Democratic (socialist/fascist) President Truman severely chastises Vyacheslav M. Molotov, Foreign Minister of the Soviet Union, for the U.S.S.R.’s having violated the Yalta Agreement by establishing a communist puppet government in Poland, rather than allow the return of Poland’ exiled pre-war government.
