Most Americans are unaware that Soviet forces detained and imprisoned Japanese soldiers and civilians on a massive scale following World War II.

This text counters revisionist claims that the USA led Japan into war in 1941 and that war could have been avoided by the pursuit of a more conciliatory policy on the part of the USA. It explores why it was necessary to demand surrender and refutes claims that Japan was a "victim" of the war.

Japan and the Soviet Union were at war with each other for less than a month during World War II, but they have yet to reach agreement on a peace treaty. This work examines the attempts of the two countries and their statesmen to resolve their differences.
