The article focuses on the German reverses in Ukraine. The German generals could quite reasonably have expected to expected to stop their retreat at the Dnieper. Their armies had not been greatly reduced by the summer's retreat, they had shortened their communications, and they had reached prepared positions of their own choosing. It is in the light of rapidly approaching German defeat that the Moscow conference must be viewed. Possibly the most vital single result of the conference was the satisfaction of Russian demands for an invasion of Western Europe.
