Arguably, the Soviets did do most of the heavy lifting on the land campaigns against the Third Reich. They tied up more divisions, killed more Germans and German Allies, and took more casualties.
Unlike us, they sure as heck were not going home without some Territorial concessions.

Arguably, the Soviets did do most of the heavy lifting on the land campaigns against the Third Reich. Even the ones chained into their aircraft and in the punishment, death battalions charging the Germans. Their mass murdering dictator had ways of pushing his enslaved people forward and having them endure the cost.

It isn’t even arguable; they did. How that translates into keeping territories of other countries that had been victimized by the Nazis is beyond me; by what right would they keep Poland?
Our collusion with the USSR guaranteed that we would fight wars in Korea and Vietnam because we rescued Stalin while selling out Europe.
