In December of 1941, the US was in World War Two based on the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and Hitler's declaration of war against the US. On a defacto basis, the Soviet Union joined the Second World War when in conjunction with Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union Union violated the border with Poland and occupied the western half of Poland. The Soviets at the same time were conducting a war with Finland. Stalin was forced to be an "ally" with the US and Great Britain when Hitler attacked the USSR earlier in 1941.
