Chapter 969: Every Country Has Its Own Ulterior Motives_2

This was the first thought of the Russian ruler, Stalin, upon learning of internal issues within Germany.

Although Germany was already at the end of its tether, conquering the whole of Germany was by no means an easy task.

More importantly, whoever could occupy more important regions and cities in Germany would be able to benefit from Germany first.

For instance, the plan formulated by Australasia to occupy the Ruhr District was motivated by the strong industrial scale Germany had in the Ruhr.

It was the same with the Russian strategists' goal to capture Berlin, as the capital and largest urban city of Germany, the assets that could be seized were innumerable.

This was extremely important for Russia, currently impoverished and severely wounded. It would not only accelerate Russia's recovery but also allow it to swiftly emerge from the war's shadow and, with this opportunity, become an even stronger industrial and economic power.
