Twitter Ye Not - The Yalta Agreement
Twitter Ye Not - The Yalta Agreement
A regular piece for the Daily Mail Weekend magazine about how figures in history might have twittered or tweeted or whatever, had they the chance, inclination and technology.
On the 11th February 1945, Winston Churchill, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Joseph Stalin signed the Yalta Agreement, which dictated how Europe would be ruled after the defeat of nazi Germany. Even at its signing, critics were already sceptical about Stalin's motives and his willingness to comply with Yalta's stipulations, as a Twitter feed from that time would no doubt have reflected.
