Such an exercise offers opportunities for delegates to meaningfully explore possibilities for conflict resolution on various issues and their complex, even controversial dimensions – which, we recognize, may be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. As UTMUN seeks to provide an enriching educational experience that facilitates understanding of the real-world implications of issues, our committees’ contents may necessarily involve sensitive or controversial subject matter strictly for academic purposes. We ask for delegates to be respectful, professional, tactful, and diplomatic when engaging with all committee content, representing their assigned country’s or character’s position, communicating with staff and other delegates, and responding to opposing viewpoints.

The Yalta Conference
Page 29 Chapter 6 The Yalta Conference hile Germany and the Allies were engaged in the Battle of the Bulge, US President Franklin WRoosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill prepared to meet with Marshall Joseph Stalin of the USSR. The three leaders were scheduled to confer on Soviet territory at the Black Sea resort town of Yalta in early February 1945. The Big Three, as they were called, had previously met in Teheran, Iran, where they had discussed plans to defeat the Axis. Stalin, still concerned that the brunt of Germany’s forces were directed at Russia, inquired again as to when the Western allies would divert Hitler’s attention from the eastern front by opening up a second front in France. This time, with Germany at the verge of defeat, the leaders of the Grand Alliance met to determine the nature of the post-Axis peace. They would redraw the world map and decide the boundary lines of countries in Europe and Asia. Specifically, they would reach crucial decisions on Germany, Poland, Eastern Europe, Japan, and on the formation of the United Nations. This chapter provides information to enable your class to re-enact the Yalta Conference. Each of you will play the part of an advisor to one of the three most powerful people in the world: Franklin Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, or Joseph Stalin. The class will actually make decisions on issues that were discussed by these world leaders. Your job will be to get the best possible deal for your country. At the same time, you must maintain the wartime alliance essential to defeat Germany and Japan.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt – 1945
Video Transcript for Archival Research Catalog (ARC) Identifier 39057 Franklin Delano Roosevelt – 1945 Text: FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT Narrator: Over the White House at Washington, the flag flies at half-staff as a grief-stricken nation mourns the death of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, president of the United States. Inside, in the historic Cabinet room, Vice President Harry S. Truman takes the oath of office as 32nd President, administered by Chief Justice Harlan Fiske Stone. Mrs. Truman is at his side. President Truman asks the full Roosevelt Cabinet to remain in office, expressing his intention to carry on American policies as formulated by the Roosevelt administration. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who became one of the greatest presidents of the United States, a friendly, quick-smiling man who loved his neighbors and his family. This was a vigorous, dynamic man who lived the strenuous life to the hilt, despite the tragic crippling paralysis which almost ended his career at the age of 39. Much of his time was spent with his family. A nation, and a world, plunged into lasting sorrow by Franklin D. Roosevelt’s death offers deepest condolence, first, to the Roosevelt family. This was Franklin Roosevelt. Born to prosperity and comfort, but who dedicated all of his adult years to the service of his fellow men: as assistant secretary of Navy in the First World War; as candidate for vice president in 1920; and then as governor of the state of New York for two terms. Achieving great national prominence, Franklin Roosevelt was nominated by the Democratic Convention of 1932 as candidate for president, and was elected by a large majority.

The Atlantic Charter
Name _____________________________ Class _________________ Date __________________ World War II Primary Source The Atlantic Charter ABOUT THE SOURCE Soon after World War II began, Germany defeated Poland, France, and several other European nations. Great Britain stood alone against the powerful Nazi war machine. Alarmed by the possibility of a German conquest of all of Europe, the U.S. government started sending aid to Britain. During the summer of 1941, U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt met with British Prime Minister Winston Churchill off the coast of Canada. On August 14, 1941, they issued a joint declaration known as the Atlantic Charter. As you read consider how Roosevelt and Churchill sought to prevent future wars. The following words may be new to you: aggrandizement, hindrance, practicable. You may want to use a dictionary to look them up. The President of the United States of America and the Prime Minister, Mr. Churchill, representing His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom, being met together, deem it right to make known certain common principles in the national policies of their respective countries on which they base their hopes for a better future for the world. First, their countries seek no aggrandizement, territorial or other; Second, they desire to see no territorial changes that do not accord with the freely expressed wishes of the peoples concerned; Third, they respect the right of all peoples to choose the form of government under which they will live; and they wish to see sovereign rights and self government

The Atlantic Charter of 1941: a Political Tool of Non-Belligerent America
The Japanese Journal of American Studies, No. 14 (2003) The Atlantic Charter of 1941: A Political Tool of Non-belligerent America Yui HATCHO INTRODUCTION In August 1941, American President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill held a conference and agreed on a joint statement to be published simultaneously in Washington and London. The joint statement, which was soon to be known by the name of the Atlantic Charter, announced eight principles that provided the framework for their hopes for a better future world. This paper aims to shed light on the political aspects of the making of the Atlantic Charter, and also to bring out the original character of the bilateral statement, which is not well known now. It is not too much to say that the Atlantic Charter is one of the most famous documents in the history of the Second World War. The com- mon understanding of the statement is probably that it was similar in meaning to the war aims of the United States or the Allies, or that it rep- resented an Anglo-American plan for the reconstruction of the postwar world. Yet, is it really so? If the Charter was a statement of U.S. war aims, why did non-belligerent America make such a statement without a declaration of war? If the Charter was a program for the postwar world, why did the two countries make it when Britain was on the edge of Copyright © 2003 Yui Hatcho. All rights reserved.

Charter of the United Nations
United Nations Audiovisual Library of International Law CHARTER OF THE UNITED NATIONS The origin of the Charter of the United Nations can be traced back to the Atlantic Charter, signed on 14 August 1941, by which Franklin D. Roosevelt, President of the United States of America, and Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, made known “certain common principles in the national policies of their respective countries on which they base their hopes for a better future for the world”. This document, in its eighth paragraph, incidentally referred to the future “establishment of a wider and permanent system of general security”. On 1 January 1942, 26 States at war with the Axis Powers, including the United States, the United Kingdom, China and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), subscribed to the common programme of purposes and principles embodied in the Atlantic Charter in a document, which became known as the “Declaration by United Nations”, containing the first official use of the term “United Nations” (21 other States adhered to that Declaration at a later date). From 18 October to 1 November 1943, a Conference was held in Moscow, with the participation of the United States, the United Kingdom, the USSR and China. At the conclusion of the Conference, the participating Governments adopted a Joint Four-Nation Declaration in which, inter alia, they “recognize[d] the necessity of establishing at the earliest practicable date a general international organization, based on the principle of the sovereign equality of all peace-loving States, and open to membership by all such States, large and small, for the maintenance of international peace and security”.

Shulman* As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our founding fathers faced with perils that we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience’s sake. And so, to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and we are ready to lead once more.
