The purpose of the Yalta Conference (February 1945) was to discuss what Europe would look like after World War II. The conference involved the three largest allied powers during this time, including the US, Soviet Union, and Great Britain. This meeting revolved around getting Germany to surrender unconditionally as well as a plan for reorganizing territories and who would control them after the war.
