Anglo-Soviet Agreement

The Anglo-Soviet Agreement refers to a series of agreements made between the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union during World War II, primarily in 1941. These agreements were aimed at fostering military cooperation against Nazi Germany after the Soviet Union was invaded. They included commitments to share intelligence and support each other’s war efforts. This alliance was crucial as it united two ideologically opposed nations—capitalist Britain and communist Soviet Union—against a common enemy, reinforcing the concept that nations can collaborate despite differing ideologies when faced with significant threats.
