Beskrivelse
The Second Front is the conventional name of the Western European Front in the Second World War of 1939-1945, which England and the United States undertook to open in Europe in 1942, which was solemnly declared in the Anglo-Soviet and Soviet-American Communiqué of June 12, 1942 in connection with the visit of the then People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs of the USSR V. M. Molotov to London and Washington. However, the Western allies were in no hurry to fulfill their promise, despite the fact that the Soviet leadership has repeatedly stated that the Soviet Union can not accept the postponement of opening the second front". In fact, the second front in Europe, the Allies opened only in June 1944 with their Operation Overlord, when it became clear that the Red Army itself could finally defeat Nazi Germany and solve the problem of liberating Europe from the Nazi yoke. Prolonging the opening of the second front was not accidental, it was dictated by the interested circles of England and the United States, pursuing their own selfish goals.
