Joint Planing Group had drawn up plans for 'Operation Unthinkable' - a 'total war ... to impose our will upon
Russia'.

with the Russians.
- Also, soon after he had arrived at the Conference, Truman learned (on 21 July) that America had tested the first atomic bomb. It
gave the Americans a huge military advantage over everyone else. It also meant that Truman didn't need Stalin's help in Japan.
Instead, Truman's main aim at the conference was to find out from Stalin what date the Russians intended to enter the war in the
Pacific - something which (unlike Roosevelt) he did NOT want.
- to set up the four ‘zones of occupation’ in Germany. The Nazi Party, government and laws were to be
destroyed, and 'German education shall be so controlled as completely to eliminate Nazi and militarist
doctrines and to make possible the successful development of democratic ideas.
