During World War II, the United States spent more than $50 billion on military aid to all of its allies, of which $11.3 billion went to the Soviet Union through a wide variety of military and industrial equipment that was provided by the Red Army during its fight against the imposing German army, so it is worth asking, how much equipment arrived? What was it that was sent? When did it arrive? And lastly and most importantly, how decisive was it? Today we will answer these questions. Welcome dear viewers to a new installment of the raw Friday afternoon confrontation, where we will address the impact that the Lend-Lease Act had within the Soviet Union, a topic that many are unaware of, others dismiss, and there are even those who attribute the Soviet victory over the Germans to the mere existence of aid received from the West, and as in everything, reality and history are more complex than these statements, so gentlemen, I am your host Der Ausländer, and join me in clarifying everything that revolves around this topic once and for all.
