Winston Churchill - Churchill was in Moscow
Time: Wednesday Aug 12, 1942
Place: Moscow, U.S.S.R. (Present-Day Moscow, Russia)
Details: Churchill was in Moscow from 12 to 16 August and had four lengthy meetings with Stalin. Although they got along quite well together on a personal level, there was little chance of any real progress given the state of the war with the Germans still advancing in all theatres. Stalin was desperate for the Allies to open the Second Front in Europe, as Churchill had discussed with Molotov in May, and the answer was the same.
