Yesterday we discussed the Second World War in Europe, where the Red Army destroyed 75–80% of the Wehrmacht. Today, let’s turn to what happened in China. Japan launched its war against China in 1937, which is why many historians mark that year as the true beginning of World War II in Asia. A lesser-known fact is that in 1939 Japan also clashed with the USSR at Khalkhin Gol, where Soviet forces under General Zhukov delivered a decisive defeat. On September 15, 1939, the Soviet–Japanese Ceasefire Agreement was signed in Moscow. After that, Japan no longer attempted to attack the USSR, but instead intensified its brutal campaign in China and Korea, killing civilians, sending people to concentration camps, and pursuing outright territorial conquest.
