The breakdown of relations between SFR Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union was called the Tito-Stalin Split. This began the Informbiro Period in 1948.

Stalin did more for the USSR. He repelled German invasion and ultimately defeated them.
The communist leader who defeated Hitler in the battle of stalingrad was Joseph Stalin. He was the leader of the USSR who defeated Germany in the battle of Stalingrad.
Stalin used his post as General Secretary of the Communist Party to remove people close to his enemies. Once he had removed all Trotsky's allies, Stalin could take over.
I have done some research and as it occurs, there was a brief period that some refer to as the occupation of Yugoslavia from the USSR. During the WWII, what was later formed as Yugoslavia was defended by the Partisans, a peoples movement inspired by communism, and one must add, the simple need for defense. The Russian forces did help in the final push against the Germans, and Yugoslavia remained communist for many decades. This is where the occupation part comes in - as the Russian forces barged in to help against the Germans, they stayed for some time. But, the country was never even remotely a part of the USSR, later there was even a fallout between Tito, the leader of the communist Yugoslavia, and the leader of the USSR at the time.
declare war on Japan once the Nazis were defeated
His close followers in the Soviet government all knew that the aged Stalin was dying of natural causes. They and the doctors were beyond any suspicion that any "interference" had been done.
Stalin wanted to keep the countries he defeated. He wanted them to become part of communist USSR. Truman and Churchill wanted him to give them up and let them have peace and freedom. Stalin was not having it their way. He kept them and they were under communist rule for nearly fifty years.
