We are going to explain from here, exactly. 00:00:00
So what happened on the eastern front from the spring of 1942 00:00:06
up to the end of the year? 00:00:13
We are going to explain from the spring in 1942 00:00:15
up to February in 1943. 00:00:20
And we are going to focus on the eastern front. 00:00:23
So the spring of 1942, we are going 00:00:28
to travel to the spring of 1942. 00:00:32
The spring of 1942 brought the same rainfall 00:00:37
than in the autumn. 00:00:42
So it was very, very, very difficult for the German army 00:00:45
to advance. 00:00:51
And remember that the Germans were defeated 00:00:52
in the Battle of Moscow in December. 00:00:55
So Hitler, in the Battle of Moscow and even before, 00:00:59
made another mistake, one more. 00:01:07
When Hitler was defeated in the Battle of Moscow, 00:01:12
when he saw the level of rainfall in the spring, 00:01:16
he took another decision. 00:01:20
He made another mistake because he drove his troops. 00:01:23
He took his troops after the Battle of Moscow 00:01:33
from the center to the city of Stalingrad. 00:01:37
Why? 00:01:42
Because I will say that in the spring of 1942, 00:01:43
production was really important for the Germans. 00:01:49
They were focused on production because they ran out of oil. 00:01:55
They were looking for more resources. 00:02:00
They knew that in order to carry on in this war, 00:02:02
they needed oil, petrol. 00:02:07
They didn't have enough oil, and that's 00:02:10
why Hitler took this decision to move his troops 00:02:13
from the center, from Moscow, to the city of Stalingrad. 00:02:21
Hitler moved his troops to Stalingrad 00:02:26
because he was looking for the resources in the Caucasus 00:02:29
mountains. 00:02:34
In the area of Baku, in the Caucasus mountains, 00:02:35
it was the area of the main reserves of oil 00:02:39
in the Soviet Union. 00:02:43
And Hitler moved his troops to the south 00:02:45
in order to take these resources that Germany needed to carry 00:02:49
on fighting in this war. 00:02:54
So he moved his troops from Moscow 00:02:56
to the city of Stalingrad. 00:02:59
And it was another mistake. 00:03:02
Actually, the Allies were planning 00:03:04
to assassinate Hitler many, many times. 00:03:07
There were many, many attempts. 00:03:10
But in this moment, they stopped all these plans 00:03:13
to assassinate Hitler because they would prefer 00:03:19
to have Hitler in power. 00:03:22
Hitler was making many, many mistakes. 00:03:24
And at this point of war, the Allies 00:03:28
would prefer to have Hitler in power 00:03:31
instead of looking for missions to assassinate him. 00:03:33
They would prefer him in power. 00:03:40
So we are going to see in this lesson the three 00:03:43
different ways, or there were three different push 00:03:47
to defeat the Soviet Union, the Germans. 00:03:52
We are going to see in this lesson the three 00:03:56
different ways that the Germans undertook, 00:03:59
that the Germans undertook, llevaron a cabo, 00:04:05
three different ways that the Germans undertook 00:04:08
to defeat the Soviet Union. 00:04:11
The first one was in August. 00:04:14
The second one was in October. 00:04:16
They tried the final one in November. 00:04:19
But we will see what happened. 00:04:22
We have one question. 00:04:26
You want to ask me one question? 00:04:35
Now is everything clear so far? 00:04:37
Yes? 00:04:39
OK. 00:04:40
I'm going to carry on. 00:04:41
So what happened in these three different ways? 00:04:43
We need to remember the first one. 00:04:46
The first one was in August. 00:04:47
On the 23rd of August in 1942, it 00:04:51
was the moment when the Germans launched a huge attack 00:04:55
over the city of Stalingrad. 00:05:00
Remember, they moved basically all their troops 00:05:03
from the center to the city of Stalingrad. 00:05:07
And in August, they launched a massive attack, 00:05:10
a massive bombing over the city of Stalingrad. 00:05:15
They did to Stalingrad what they 00:05:20
had done before to Warsaw, Rotterdam, and also 00:05:23
several cities in Great Britain. 00:05:28
So as a consequence, they left the city a pile of rubble, 00:05:31
a pile of escombros, due to this massive bombing. 00:05:38
But they left the city a pile of rubble, 00:05:44
but they couldn't advance. 00:05:48
The Germans couldn't advance, because all the roads 00:05:49
were a quack mire, quack mire. 00:05:55
Estaban en malas condiciones. 00:06:01
Las carreteras se habían convertido en pantanosas, 00:06:04
quack mires. 00:06:06
And also, the city was a pile of rubble, 00:06:08
and they couldn't advance. 00:06:11
So it was another mistake. 00:06:13
They bombed the city. 00:06:15
There was a massive bombing, but it wasn't decisive. 00:06:17
They couldn't advance. 00:06:20
And what was the answer for the Soviet Union 00:06:22
when the Germans bombed the city of Stalingrad? 00:06:26
The answer for the Soviet Union was the following. 00:06:31
What happened at that time? 00:06:35
What happened was the following. 00:06:36
The Soviet Union fought. 00:06:39
They used one special tactic. 00:06:42
The Soviet Union and Stalin decided 00:06:45
to fight for every house, for every factory 00:06:47
in the city of Stalingrad, because they turned this attack 00:06:52
into a symbol for the Soviet Union. 00:06:57
Stalin thought that the main way to win this war 00:07:00
was to resist in Stalingrad. 00:07:04
And for this reason, the Soviet Union 00:07:07
fought for every house, for every factory, for every bridge. 00:07:09
The Germans called this war the War of Rats. 00:07:15
Why? 00:07:20
Because Stalin used all the resources 00:07:20
that he had to defeat the Germans in Stalingrad. 00:07:24
For example, 200 citizens were used to build fortresses, 00:07:30
to dig entrenchments. 00:07:36
And actually, Stalin gave the order 00:07:39
to the Soviet Union forces who were fighting in Stalingrad 00:07:43
to retreat, basically to arrest anyone 00:07:48
who retreated without orders. 00:07:53
So imagine the situation. 00:07:56
Stalin gave the order to the troops 00:07:59
to arrest anyone who retreated from the front. 00:08:01
And also, Stalin created some special units 00:08:06
who were behind the advanced troops. 00:08:13
So imagine the advanced troops. 00:08:17
Imagine advancing troops who were 00:08:19
fighting against the Germans. 00:08:22
Stalin created a special unit who 00:08:24
was behind the advancing troops to gun down anyone 00:08:28
or every soldier who turned around to flee. 00:08:35
So it was very, very tough. 00:08:41
Stalin wanted to resist it up to the end. 00:08:45
And questions up to here? 00:08:49
If these units, these special units that Stalin established, 00:08:54
had a name or something to it? 00:08:59
They were part of the troops. 00:09:04
They were part of the Soviet Union army. 00:09:08
And as far as I know, they didn't have a special name. 00:09:11
But it was very representative that Stalin 00:09:16
was very committed to win this battle against Hitler 00:09:18
because he understood from the very beginning 00:09:22
that it was decisive. 00:09:25
OK, perfect. 00:09:27
Thank you. 00:09:28
So let's carry on. 00:09:29
What happened next? 00:09:31
So from August in 1942, I will say, up to October, 00:09:33
the Germans of the Soviet Union were 00:09:40
fighting for every street in Stalingrad. 00:09:42
And they couldn't, both armies were not 00:09:47
able to advance from August up to October. 00:09:51
And the Germans in October, they were 00:09:56
waiting for more resources, more weaponry, fresh troops. 00:10:00
Tropas de reemplazo, fresh troops. 00:10:08
So the Germans were waiting from August to October 00:10:12
for more resources, because in October, 00:10:16
they prepared another push, another wave of attacks. 00:10:20
So in October, pay attention to this data, to this figure. 00:10:27
22nd German divisions besieged the city of Stalingrad. 00:10:35
On the 4th of October, 22 German divisions besieged the city 00:10:43
of Stalingrad. 00:10:52
It was the 6th German army. 00:10:54
And the 6th German army, under the command of von Paulus, 00:10:57
surrounded and sieged the city of Stalingrad, 00:11:05
because they were looking for another push. 00:11:09
It was the decisive wave of attacks from the Germans. 00:11:12
But they couldn't win this battle. 00:11:18
Basically, for three different reasons 00:11:23
that I'm going to explain right now. 00:11:26
Stalin and General Zhukov knew about the German attack. 00:11:31
They knew in advance about the German tactic. 00:11:36
But they didn't have the same opinion 00:11:41
about how to defend the city, because Stalin 00:11:45
wanted to use all resources available. 00:11:50
But General Zhukov didn't agree with this idea. 00:11:55
And he convinced his boss, he convinced Stalin 00:12:00
to change his tactic. 00:12:06
So Stalin wanted to use all resources available 00:12:09
in terms of weaponry, in terms of soldiers. 00:12:15
But General Zhukov had more experience in war. 00:12:18
And he convinced his boss, Stalin, to change his tactic. 00:12:22
So Zhukov, for example, knew that the best German armies 00:12:28
were in the west, in the west of the city of Stalingrad. 00:12:35
And Zhukov knew that, in terms of technology, 00:12:42
the Soviet Union was superior to the Germans. 00:12:47
Because the Soviet Union were producing, 00:12:50
at that point in war, 2,000 tanks. 00:12:53
And the Soviet tanks were superior. 00:12:59
The T-34, the Soviet tank, the T-34, 00:13:02
was superior to the Panzers or German Tigers. 00:13:07
That's why I don't agree with this idea 00:13:12
that they didn't have enough weaponry in the year of 1942. 00:13:14
Because in terms of technology, in 1942, 00:13:19
they were superior to the Germans by a long way, 00:13:22
as you can see here within this figure. 00:13:27
So Zhukov basically was planning the following. 00:13:31
He was planning, I don't know if you are following me, 00:13:37
he was planning to move the Soviet troops from the south 00:13:40
up to the east, and from the east 00:13:47
to move his troops up to the north. 00:13:52
Because General Zhukov knew that the Italians and the Romanians 00:13:56
were defending the German line in the north. 00:14:02
So Zhukov knew that the best of the German army 00:14:10
was in the west, and he knew also 00:14:13
that the worst of the German troops 00:14:16
were in the north, because they were composed 00:14:19
by Italians and Romanian troops. 00:14:22
And they didn't have as much experience 00:14:25
as the German troops. 00:14:27
So in September, I don't know if you can see here perfectly 00:14:31
the movement in September. 00:14:37
Basically, Zhukov moved his troops 00:14:40
from the south up to the east, and from the east 00:14:45
up to the north. 00:14:50
As you can see, the Italians and the Romanians were here. 00:14:52
And General Zhukov launched a huge counterattack 00:14:55
in November, because he was planning 00:15:00
to look up, to lock up, to encircle the Germans. 00:15:06
It was the brilliant Soviet tactic 00:15:14
that General Zhukov carried out during the month 00:15:17
at the end of September and at the beginning of November 00:15:21
in 1942. 00:15:25
Questions up to here? 00:15:27
Ask me, Lara. 00:15:30
Lara, do you have a question? 00:15:32
No, I think it was from before. 00:15:35
OK. 00:15:37
Thank you. 00:15:37
Could you repeat the thing you just said? 00:15:41
It's just that I didn't hear it. 00:15:43
OK. 00:15:46
The Zhukov tactic. 00:15:47
Yes. 00:15:49
Yes. 00:15:51
Zhukov was planning to encircle. 00:15:52
He wanted to lock up the German divisions. 00:15:57
For this reason, Zhukov used the technology 00:16:03
to move very, very quickly his forces, first of all, 00:16:07
from the south to the east, and from the east to the north. 00:16:13
Because he knew that the worst of the German troops 00:16:19
were in the north. 00:16:22
In the north, the German troops were composed mainly 00:16:24
by Italians and Romanians. 00:16:28
They didn't have as much experience 00:16:30
as the Germans who were in the west. 00:16:33
The best of the German troops were in the west. 00:16:38
It was the 6th German Army under the command of von Paulus. 00:16:41
And Zhukov used this brilliant tactic, as you can see here, 00:16:48
to move very, very quickly his troops 00:16:53
and to push here, to attack here the Italians and the Romanians, 00:16:57
because he wanted to complete the encirclement. 00:17:02
He was planning to encircle. 00:17:06
He was planning to look up the Germans in a circle 00:17:08
around the city of Stalingrad. 00:17:14
So the push began in what month? 00:17:18
At the end of? 00:17:20
At the end of October? 00:17:23
No. 00:17:25
No? 00:17:26
Yes. 00:17:26
No. 00:17:27
November? 00:17:28
At the end of September, it began the encirclement. 00:17:29
Zhukov knew that the Germans were preparing an attack 00:17:34
at the beginning of October. 00:17:39
The Germans had 20 second divisions. 00:17:41
It means almost, pay attention, 300,000 soldiers 00:17:45
to defeat Stalingrad. 00:17:51
So Hitler put everything, all his resources 00:17:54
available to conquest Stalingrad. 00:17:58
And Zhukov knew that the Germans were preparing the push, 00:18:02
the final attack in October. 00:18:06
So he began to move his troops in September. 00:18:08
He carried out in October. 00:18:12
And in November, in November, at the beginning of November, 00:18:16
he was close to complete the encirclement, the encirclement. 00:18:21
OK? 00:18:28
So what do you think? 00:18:30
Did the encirclement succeed or not? 00:18:33
Yes, exactly. 00:18:37
On the 19th of November, Zhukov completed the encirclement. 00:18:39
And the Italians, Romanians, and above all, Germans 00:18:46
were caught in the middle. 00:18:52
They were surrounded completely by the Soviet Union 00:18:55
with this brilliant tactic of General Zhukov. 00:18:59
And what happened next? 00:19:03
Obviously, since that moment, since that moment, 00:19:06
the Germans didn't have enough resources. 00:19:11
They couldn't get more resources, troops, food from abroad. 00:19:14
And the encirclement is rank. 00:19:21
The Germans, the Italians, and the Romanians 00:19:25
were caught in the middle. 00:19:27
And the only way out was to surrender. 00:19:29
OK? 00:19:35
The Soviet Union won the Battle of Stalingrad 00:19:35
at the end of December. 00:19:40
At the end of December and at the beginning of January, 00:19:43
the Soviet Union won this battle because, basically, the Germans 00:19:46
didn't get the resources that they needed to carry on. 00:19:54
But as I said in another class, because Alejandro Loera also 00:19:58
asked me this question, which was really, really nice, 00:20:03
the Soviet Union hadn't won this war. 00:20:07
I would say that it wouldn't be impossible for the Soviet Union 00:20:16
to win this battle without the resources from the United 00:20:26
States, which were coming from here, from the north. 00:20:30
OK? 00:20:35
If it hadn't been for the resources of the United States, 00:20:36
it would not have, the Soviet Union 00:20:42
would not have won this war, this battle. 00:20:45
The resources came from the north. 00:20:50
And it was key when, it was very important in this battle 00:20:53
when the United States and the Soviet Union 00:20:57
signed this treaty, the Land Lease Act. 00:21:01
It was the moment in 1941, it was the moment in 1941 00:21:05
when the Soviet Union, since that treaty, 00:21:11
they received the resources from the north, from this point, 00:21:15
from the port of Archangel and Mumarks. 00:21:19
And the Soviet Union got the resources 00:21:24
from the north to the resistance of the siege in Moscow, 00:21:26
Leningrad, and also Stalingrad. 00:21:31
This moment wouldn't be impossible 00:21:36
without the resources from the United States. 00:21:40
So as I said before, von Paulus, Alejandro, tell me. 00:21:45
This, what you have just said, is 00:21:52
that without the help of the Americans, 00:21:54
they wouldn't have been able to win in Stalingrad, right? 00:21:57
Yes, exactly. 00:22:00
If it hadn't been for the resources from the States, 00:22:04
the Soviet Union would not have won this battle 00:22:10
because it was true. 00:22:13
In 1940 and in 1941, they were in crisis. 00:22:16
The Soviet troops were in chaos, disarray. 00:22:21
And they needed more weaponry, more oil, more food 00:22:27
to resist it against the Germans. 00:22:33
And it was key this moment when the United States in March 00:22:39
in 1941, and we really need to pay attention 00:22:43
because it was before Pearl Harbor. 00:22:47
It was before Pearl Harbor because Pearl Harbor took place 00:22:49
in December. 00:22:54
And in March, United States signed a treaty 00:22:56
with the UK and the Soviet Union to provide them resources. 00:22:59
So as I said, von Paulus surrendered in January in 1942. 00:23:08
And what happened from January onwards? 00:23:17
What happened was the following. 00:23:22
The Soviet Union withstood the siege, 00:23:26
and von Paulus surrendered. 00:23:30
And from that moment, the German troops 00:23:33
retreated from Stalingrad up to the city of Kiev. 00:23:38
Once the Germans were defeated in Stalingrad, 00:23:45
von Paulus, once the Germans were defeated in Stalingrad 00:23:48
in January in 1933, the Germans retreated from Stalingrad 00:23:52
up to the city of Kiev. 00:23:59
But they were persecuted by the troops, 00:24:02
by the Soviet Union troops. 00:24:06
And there was the decisive, and it 00:24:09
happened, the decisive battle on the Eastern Front. 00:24:12
After the Battle of Stalingrad, the vast majority 00:24:16
of the people remember the Battle of Stalingrad. 00:24:22
But actually, it was even more decisive, 00:24:25
the Battle of the Kursk, that I'm 00:24:29
going to explain in a minute. 00:24:31
Because after Stalingrad, the German troops 00:24:35
retreated to Kiev. 00:24:38
They were persecuted by the Soviet Union, 00:24:40
by General Sukhov, up to the city of Kursk, close to Kiev. 00:24:42
And it was the moment when the Germans 00:24:49
decided to have another, the last one, the last battle 00:24:52
against the Soviet Union. 00:24:57
Questions? 00:24:59
Alejandro, Acetuno? 00:25:00
No, Antonio was first. 00:25:02
Hold on. 00:25:04
Gau Paulus surrendered the- 00:25:09
On the 30th of January, 19- 00:25:13
43, será? 00:25:17
Yes, it's a mistake. 00:25:18
Thank you so much, Antonio. 00:25:21
Nada. 00:25:22
Who was Gau Paulus? 00:25:23
O sea, Bon Paulus. 00:25:24
Bon Paulus was the general of the 6th Army, 00:25:25
the general who was in charge of the 6th Army. 00:25:29
Thank you for the question. 00:25:32
Do you remember the 6th Army who were in the West, 00:25:33
who were waiting for the resources 00:25:38
to attack finally in October Stalingrad? 00:25:40
Bon Paulus was the general who was 00:25:44
in charge of this final wave, of this final push 00:25:46
over the city of Stalingrad. 00:25:51
Bueno, era eso. 00:25:55
Thank you. 00:25:56
Thank you for the questions. 00:25:58
To clarify. 00:25:59
Luis? 00:26:03
Alejandro, Acetuno. 00:26:04
You said before that there were campaigns in August, 00:26:06
which was the first one, then in October, which was this one 00:26:10
that you explained finally, and then in November. 00:26:13
Are you considering October and November together, or no? 00:26:16
In November, Bon Paulus was preparing the final attack 00:26:23
in October, but as he couldn't get the resources 00:26:28
that he needed to undertake the final push, 00:26:35
he was waiting also to November to carry on fighting 00:26:40
against the Soviet Union. 00:26:45
But the counterattack from the Soviet Union came before. 00:26:46
It came before, and Bon Paulus didn't have enough time 00:26:52
to undertake his final push. 00:26:57
He was surprised. 00:27:01
He was surprised by the Soviet Union tactic, 00:27:02
and he was caught in the encirclement. 00:27:06
More questions? 00:27:12
So what happened in the Battle of the Kursk? 00:27:14
We all know about the Battle of Stalingrad. 00:27:17
Have you heard about the Battle of the Kursk? 00:27:20
No? 00:27:24
No. 00:27:25
It was more decisive than the Battle of Stalingrad. 00:27:25
I would say that the Battle of Stalingrad 00:27:30
was a moral defeat by the Germans, 00:27:31
but the final defeat took place in the Battle of the Kursk. 00:27:35
What happened? 00:27:40
The Germans retreated from Stalingrad up to Kiev, 00:27:41
more or less, and they were persecuted by General Zhukov 00:27:45
and the Soviet Union, and Hitler gave the order 00:27:50
to Erich von Manstein to have a final battle 00:27:54
in the Battle of the Kursk. 00:28:00
Erich von Manstein was the one who 00:28:02
had the idea to attack through their wings 00:28:06
on the Western Front. 00:28:11
I don't know if you remember, but it was the same general. 00:28:13
So the final battle on the Eastern Front 00:28:17
took place in the Battle of the Kursk, 00:28:19
and we are going to see who was the winner. 00:28:21
Elisa? 00:28:24
I have a question. 00:28:28
Why did the Soviet Union let the Germans retreat 00:28:29
from Stalingrad to have another battle in Ukraine? 00:28:36
Really good question, because the Soviet Union 00:28:40
didn't want to take more prisoners, 00:28:45
because it meant to feed them, and that's 00:28:48
why they opened the encirclement. 00:28:55
They knew that the Germans were defeated, 00:28:57
and they knew that the Germans would retreat to Germany. 00:29:01
But Hitler was very proud of himself, 00:29:08
and he gave the order to Erich von Manstein 00:29:17
to resist in Kiev around Ukraine, 00:29:20
because he wanted to keep the resources. 00:29:24
Remember that the Ukraine was the breadbasket of Europe, 00:29:28
and Hitler needed the Ukraine to feed the German population. 00:29:32
That's why Hitler gave the order to resist up to the end. 00:29:37
And one question. 00:29:41
If they didn't want to take prisoners, 00:29:42
why didn't they just kill them? 00:29:45
Because it wasn't necessary. 00:29:48
I mean, 100,000 soldiers were resisted. 00:29:54
German soldiers resisted up to the end. 00:30:00
So imagine killing 100,000 soldiers. 00:30:04
Imagine killing this amount of soldiers. 00:30:10
It would be genocide, and for this reason, 00:30:13
they released them from the encirclement, 00:30:17
because they knew that they were defeated. 00:30:20
But instead, it was another mistake for Hitler, 00:30:23
because instead of using these soldiers 00:30:26
to defend his own country, he decided 00:30:28
to use them in the final battle of the Kursk. 00:30:32
OK, Elisa? 00:30:38
Yeah. 00:30:39
Alejandro? 00:30:41
And that I would like to say in response to Elisa, 00:30:44
that killing soldiers from other army was like a war crime, 00:30:47
I think. 00:30:54
It's a war crime. 00:30:56
If you have prisoners, you have to maintain them. 00:30:57
Exactly. 00:31:01
You couldn't just kill them. 00:31:02
Exactly. 00:31:03
Because obviously, Hitler didn't follow the orders 00:31:05
from the League of Nations, from the international law. 00:31:09
But the Soviet Union and the Allies were following the law. 00:31:14
They were following the international law. 00:31:19
And according to international law, 00:31:21
you have to maintain all these soldiers to feed them. 00:31:23
You can't kill them. 00:31:27
Alejandro, what do you think? 00:31:28
That I understand what you're saying, 00:31:31
but at the same time, the Soviet Union 00:31:33
were having the gulags and all this kind of stuff. 00:31:37
Yes. 00:31:40
But they were giving one impression to abroad, 00:31:41
and other things happened. 00:31:45
Other things were the internal affairs of the Soviet Union 00:31:48
before the Second World War. 00:31:50
There were many contradictions in this war. 00:31:52
And also, Stalin gave the order to kill the police officers. 00:31:54
20,000 officers, police officers, 00:32:00
were called in the forest of Katyn. 00:32:05
And Stalin said that it was Hitler's fault, 00:32:08
but it was his own fault. 00:32:12
He gave the order, Stalin gave the order 00:32:13
to kill all these police officers 00:32:15
in the forest of Katyn. 00:32:18
Many contradictions. 00:32:22
Yes, class, exactly. 00:32:23
Thank you for the questions. 00:32:24
So what happened in the Battle of the Kursk? 00:32:26
In this battle, the tanks were key. 00:32:28
They were the key weaponry, because it 00:32:31
was the battle in which the tanks were very, very decisive. 00:32:35
And at this point in war, the Soviet tanks 00:32:41
were superior than the Tigers and the Panzers. 00:32:44
The T-34, this is an image of the T-34. 00:32:48
Yes, it's impressive. 00:32:51
Impressive. 00:32:53
The T-34 were superior than the Tigers and the Panzers. 00:32:56
And also, the Soviet Union were able to produce more tanks 00:33:01
than the Germany. 00:33:04
At this point in war, the industrialization, 00:33:06
which was undertaken by Stalin, was 00:33:10
able to produce more tanks than the Germans. 00:33:16
And it was true that the Soviet Union lost a lot of tanks 00:33:20
in these battles, even more than the Germans. 00:33:23
But they can't afford to do it, because they 00:33:27
were able to replace all these tanks, 00:33:30
because its own industrialization 00:33:34
was superior than the German industrialization 00:33:38
at this point. 00:33:42
They can't afford it. 00:33:43
And they won, because they had more tanks, 00:33:45
and because the T-34 was superior than the Tigers 00:33:48
and Panzers. 00:33:51
So they won this battle. 00:33:54
They won this battle. 00:33:55
And after this, in July 1943, the Germans 00:33:56
retreated to the territory of Germany. 00:34:01
Now, Hitler was committed to defend its own territory. 00:34:05
The Soviet Union were the winners on the Eastern Front. 00:34:11
They released the Ukraine. 00:34:15
The Ukraine, the breadbasket of Europe, 00:34:17
belonged from that moment to the Soviet Union. 00:34:22
That's why the Soviet Union occupied the Ukraine 00:34:26
at the end of the war. 00:34:28
And also, it was the moment after the Battle of Kursk 00:34:30
when Stalin gave the order to release 00:34:34
the siege of Leningrad. 00:34:40
And they expelled the Germans from there. 00:34:43
So it was terrible for the citizens of Leningrad, 00:34:46
because they were under the rule. 00:34:51
They were under the rule of the Germans 00:34:53
from the beginning of this war, from 1941 up to 1944. 00:34:56
And also, as I said before, if it 00:35:08
hadn't been for the resources from the United States, 00:35:13
they would not have resisted up to the end. 00:35:19
It was key. 00:35:24
Also, the Lend-Lease Act and the Lend-Lease Bill 00:35:25
for the citizens of Leningrad. 00:35:29
We have finished. 00:35:31
Time for your questions. 00:35:32
