The notion that the German head of state would publicly agree to something that was the direct opposite of his intentions was anathema to Chamberlain. And Chamberlain wasn’t the last British Prime minister to be taken in by a dictator. After the conference at Yalta in February 1945, Winston Churchill returned and told his minister, “Poor Chamberlain believed he could trust Hitler. He was wrong. But I don’t think I’m wrong about Stalin.” The subsequent history demonstrated , of course that Churchill was as wrong about Stalin as Chamberlain had been about Hitler ~ Page 160

. . . After preparatory conferences in Quebec, Moscow and Cairo, the “big three” – Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin – met from 28th November to 1 December 1943 in Teheran. There the Soviet leader promised to help subdue Japan after victory over Germany, and Roosevelt and Churchill agreed to launch Operation Overlord, a landing in northern France, in May 1944. The three men also worked out the basics of a division of Germany and the country’s defeat. There was no longer any talk, however, on restoring the former borders of Poland, which Britain had guaranteed in 19e9. Stalin was now in a strong position to succeed in getting the other to agre to shift the Soviet-Polish border westwards, along the lines of the 1939 non-aggression pact he had signed with Hitler. Poland would be compensated for its losses with German territory east of the Oder-Neisse line. ~ Page 401
