If the list of concessions in the agreement is true, then it is a true disgrace. Giving the communist US blessing to start their reign of terror behind the iron curtain, simply unbelievable. FDR began losing it long time before Yalta, I suppose, and I wonder what would happen there if the other Roosevelt, Theodore, went to meet Stalin with Churchill. This way, two already broken men, FDR by disease and Churchill somewhat by age and his understanding that he failed to maintain the British Empire (even though he was on the victorious side) faced energetic and dynamic tyrant whose unstoppable march over eastern Europe seemed as threatening to them as Hitler’s appeared several years earlier. Guess they were simply trying to save their hides.
