| The Tehran Conference, held from November 28 to December 1, 1943, was the first major meeting between the leaders of the Allied powers during World War II: U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin. Convened in the Iranian capital, the conference focused on coordinating military strategy against Nazi Germany and its Axis allies. Key decisions included the launch of Operation Overlord (the D-Day invasion) to open a Western front and Soviet commitments to join the war against Japan after Germany's defeat. The conference strengthened Allied cooperation and set the stage for future collaborative efforts in the war and post-war reconstruction. |
