Why did stalin declare war on japan? what are your thoughts on the fact that he did so two days after the united states dropped the bomb on hiroshima?

The Soviet-Japanese war began on August 9, 1945 with the Soviet invasion of the puppet state of Manchukuo. The Soviets and Mongols put an end to the control and colonization by the Japanese Empire of Manchukuo, Mengjiang (Inner Mongolia), North Korea, South of Sakhalin Island and the Kuril Islands.

The rapid defeat of the Japanese Army was a decisive factor in the surrender of Japan and the end of World War II, together with the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the United States.

Stalin decided to attack when the Japanese defeat was imminent because of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs. Therefore, it is believed that its involvement in the war with Japan was purely strategic: the Soviet Union attacked Japan to avoid an American predominance over the Far East. One consequence of this situation was the subsequent division of Korea.

explanation:

according to romans 13: 1-7, 1st peter 2: 12-14, and 1 timothy 2: 1-4, christians as citizens have specific responsibilities to a nation that gives liberties to its people. christians are obliged to live as good citizens by submitting to the human government. honor, or respect, is due to men in the high governmental station. a christian should reflect such respect not to gain some favor but because it is god’s will. peter 2: 14 notes that the purpose of the human government is to promote peace and justice in society. to submit to human government, peter includes three elements; obedience, respect, and good deeds.
