Marshal Stalin warned Rumania. Hungary, Finland and Bulgaria tlrV their only chance of escaping was to break with Germany and withdraw from the war.
Discussing' the tasks ahead, Marshal Stalin said it was not enough to drive the Germans off Russian territory The German Army was a wounded animal retiring to its lair.
