When Germany attacked Russia, Britain itself was fighting for its life, so even as Russia must have welcomed allied aid in forms of military aid and equipment, the allied powers were the ones pursuing Russia to become a full pledged allied power ( it was earlier a Nazi ally or even an axis power itself ) Soviet Russia got the better deal in this alliance as eastern europe was conceded to Russia including division of Germany, UK and US were happy just to defeat the Nazis and they considered the huge loss of soviet lives ( instead of UK US lives ) was adequate price for the concessions. in short, by this secret agreement, but secret only in name, russia increased its asking price to join the allies.

Twentieth Century - France and Britain came to dominate several areas in the Middle East after the Ottoman Empire collapsed. The French Mandate in particular, created the countries of Syria and the Lebanon.
The problem was that the borders of these countries were created without regard for ethnic and religious differences.

Pros: Harding’s presidency was overshadowed by the criminal activities of some of his cabinet members and other government officials, although he himself was not involved in any wrongdoing. An Ohio native and Republican, Harding was a successful newspaper publisher who served in the Ohio legislature and the U.S. Senate. In 1920, he won the general election in a landslide, promising a “return to normalcy” after the hardships of World War I (1914-1918).
Cons: After Harding’s death, the Teapot Dome Scandal and other instances of corruption came to light, damaging his reputation. Pretty much his reputation got destroyed when he died.
