The factor of lend-lease
Abstract
70 years after the end of World War II there is ongoing debate on the exact role of lendlease in the victory of the USSR, moreover, many Russian and foreign authors use the story for the most unseemly purposes, trying to downplay the feat of the Soviet people, to devalue its victims unprecedented in human history. To confront counterfeiters, turning conscientious qualified research and publishing their results, is an important task for our historians and economists. The author of this article reviewed and analyzed many documents on this issue, and perhaps the analysis will shed more light on an important side of the Great Patriotic War.
