Stalin correctly foresaw that the Soviet Union needed to be seen as the "victim of aggression" by German invaders in order to win valuable Western aid and consolidate an East-West war-fighting alliance. His insight and subsequent maneuvering led to one of Stalin's great achievements--orchestrating the critical Soviet victory in the east.
