Why roosevelt recognized the Soviet Union in 1933?

The Soviet Union had been in existence since 1917 and Stalin had been in control of it since 1924. By 1933, FDR thought that it was appropriate to recognize that that country had a functioning government. The same thing happened after Communist China had governed the mainland from 1949. Nixon recognized that it was a stable government even though the US preferred to deal with the government on Taiwan, which still claimed to be the legitimate government of all of China. In 1933 there was no other body that claimed to be the legitimate government of Russia, so it was not an issue.
