Oct 4, 2016 at 22:10 comment added fedorqui Yours is an very good answer. Schwern's is just amazing, so I unaccepted this to accept the other one. Thanks again, my love towards this post keeps intact : )

Oct 3, 2016 at 16:10 comment added KorvinStarmast @vsz I was staying in scope, and I agree with you.

Oct 3, 2016 at 14:35 comment added KorvinStarmast That is so true: treaties are followed ... or not.
Oct 3, 2016 at 14:20 comment added fedorqui Thank you very much for your answer. I do not think Spain and South and Central American republics are comparable here, though, since Spain was a neighbour to all those countries involved in the WWII. But yes, I do agree that Spain was seen as a threat to anyone, since it triggered the wars around the area but back in 1945 was not dangerous. I was curious, though, about the Yalta Conference resolution. It looks like it happened what normally happens with treaties: they are followed... or not :)
