Question

One of the goals of the Allies was to support Russia by

1 fighting along side of them in Stalingrad.
2 conducting air strikes in Stalingrad.
3 supplying them with arms and ammunition.
4 pressuring both Germany and Italy.

Answer 1

D. pressuring both Germany and Italy.

Answer 2

The correct answer should be 4 pressuring both Germany and Italy.

A decision was made to open up the Western front around Normandy and to open up the Italian front through Sicily, as well as to fight in northern Africa. This would make Germany re-purpose its resources and give Russians some breathing space. In return, Stalin promised to help with solving the Pacific front once Europe was liberated.
