You are Joseph Stalin. It is February, 1945, and your Red Army has swept across the Balkans, Poland, and much of Czechoslovakia and Hungary. It now sits just 40 miles from Berlin. At the Yalta conference, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt insist on free elections in Poland and want you to sign the "Declaration on Liberated Europe" -- which would require democratic elections throughout the rest of the continent, including all the lands now under Soviet control. Your goal is to maintain that control. What do you do?
