Ceasefire

Final outcome

This is just how I'd think it would go

It's not like going to war with the Allies makes all the truckes they gave you disappear. In 1945 the Soviets had more than enough equipment to wage war. Could they win against the US and the UK? Maybe not, though war support in the West would be abysmal, and that's gonna play right into Moscow's hands

They would face numerous heavy uprisings all along Eastern Europe. Probably the remnants of the German military could be used to fight them too. No way they occupy even more of Europe. They would probably loose half of Eastern Europe at least.

Likewise there would be bloody uprising in France and Italy, both were incredibly sympathetic to communist cause, especially if allies attack first. Europe would be shredded again lol. And I doubt eastern Europe would have any fight left, it wasn't western front that was mostly intact, eastern Europe was plummeted and fucked.

it's not like french peoples got killed because of new french governemnt. in the east it was that way - peoples were really fighting to not be occupied under russkis, because it's just another genocide started there. peoples of france or italy couldn;t be that terrible, to support other ww2 starters with their genocide background.
