After the Germans capitulated, the Russians were mobilizing to attack Japan. They had a score to settle with the Japanese, anyway.

The atomic detonations over Hiroshima and Nagasaki ended the war too soon for the Soviets to get involved. Ironically, the Japanese were spared any Soviet intervention in the years that followed.
