Truman, Stalin, and the Atomic Bomb: The Dawn of the Cold War I SLICE HISTORY | FULL DOCUMENTARY

Upon Roosevelt's death, only two months after the Yalta Conference, Truman became the new President of the United States. Roosevelt was the great peacemaker. Without him, could the Westerners and Soviets succeed in getting along and building lasting peace? Could Truman, the "little tie salesman from Missouri" stand up to the powerful and feared Stalin? Now that the war was won in Europe, Churchill attempted to warn the new American President: the British Prime Minister was convinced that Stalin was going to take advantage of him and set up communist regimes everywhere he could. This is precisely what he had already done in Romania, while laying the groundwork in Poland and elsewhere. Truman, Churchill, and Stalin met together only once, on 17 July 1945 at the Potsdam Conference. In the very middle of the conference, and much to the surprise of one and all, on the day following the British elections, which Churchill had lost, he was replaced by Clement Attlee at the negotiating table. But Truman had an ace up his sleeve. For the past four years, in the greatest secrecy, the top scientists on the planet had been perfecting what was to become the absolute weapon: the atomic bomb.
