From November 28 to December 1, 1943, a meeting was held between the leaders of the three allied states of the anti-Hitler coalition: Joseph Stalin, the Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the President of the USA, and Winston Churchill, the Prime Minister of Great Britain. The meeting went down in history as the Tehran Conference
At the end of the conference, the Declaration of the Three Powers was published. According to the document, the leaders of the Big Three agreed upon the plans for the destruction of Nazi armed forces in terms of the timing and scale of operations undertaken from the east, west and south. The Declaration stated the determination of the three states to work together both during the war and in the ensuing time of peace.
The Tehran Conference is one of the major diplomatic events of the Second World War. It was an important stage in the development of international and inter-Alliances relations of that period.
