About This Novel
The Yalta Conference was a critical summit meeting held between February 4 and 11, 1945, between February 4 and 11, 1945, in Yalta, the Crimean Peninsula in the northern Black Sea, on the formulation of a new post-war world order and the distribution of interests. The meeting mainly studied the post-war disposition of the German issue, the Polish issue, the Far East issue, and the United Nations issue. The meeting signed the "Yalta Agreement" and adopted the "Declaration of a Liberated Europe" and the "Crimea Declaration" and other documents. The meeting consolidated and maintained the wartime alliance of the three countries, played an important and positive role in coordinating the allies' war against Germany and Japan, accelerating the victory of the anti-fascist war and promoting the formation of post-war peace and stability, and laid the foundation for the establishment of the United Nations. The arrangements for the postwar world order made by the three major powers at the conference were called the "Yalta System" and had a huge impact on the postwar world. As the then U. S. Secretary of State, Stettinius participated in the entire meeting and was one of the important decision-makers. His memoirs have irreplaceable historical value.
