Germans abandon attack on Moscow
Friday, December 5, 1941 www.onwar.com

On the Eastern Front... After a month of discussion with his Generals, Hitler finally agrees to halt the drive for Moscow.

From Berlin... Hitler orders the transfer of the whole of the Luftwaffe 2nd Air Corps from the Eastern Front to aid the Italian air force in control of the Mediterranean. The aim is to reduce the effectiveness of the attacks of the British Malta forces on the Axis supply convoys to North Africa.

In Moscow... Stalin and General Sikorski, the head of the exiled Polish government meet. A friendship and mutual aid agreement between the Soviets and the Poles is signed by the two leaders.
