At the Yalta Conference in February 1945, President Franklin D. Roosevelt made several concessions to the Soviet Union, particularly regarding the post-war reorganization of Eastern Europe. He agreed to Soviet influence in Poland and the establishment of communist governments in several Eastern European countries. Critics argue that these decisions facilitated the spread of Soviet control in the region, contributing to the Cold War tensions that followed. However, Roosevelt believed these concessions were necessary to secure Soviet cooperation in the fight against Japan and to establish a framework for lasting peace.
The Soviets policy stance toward Poland at the Yalta conference was that it was not going to give back the land that was annexed from Poland instead he would give land taken from Germany.
At the Munich conference it was decided to give Germany all of the Sudetenland.
At the Postdam Conference there were two new leaders, President Truman, Prime Minister Atlee meeting with Joseph Stalin. He was not accustomed to the two new leaders. He did not want to give up the countries he had conquered. Eventually his communist agenda led to the Cold War. Below is a link that explains it in detail.
He did not want to be involved in a conflict.
The President of the US can grant pardons for Federal Crimes.

At Yalta Roosevelt misread Stalin. Roosevelt said: "I think that if I give him everything I possibly can and ask for nothing in return, noblesse oblige, he won't try to annex anything and will work with me for a world of democracy and peace."
At the Munich conference it was decided to give Germany all of the Sudetenland.
They tell you that it is because the vice president has a longer speech but everyone knows that it is because everyone cares about the president and no one cares about the vice president so they want to give him his fame before it gets taken away by the president.
"The president ought to give away his power, ought he not?"

The President of the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference is the Most Rev Philip E Wilson. The President and Vice-President are each elected for two-year terms. The President of the ACBC occasionally makes statements either on behalf of the whole Conference, or by virtue of his position as President. The Permanent Committee is the Executive and Standing Committee of the Conference. The President is ex officio. Other members are elected for terms of two years. Cardinal George Pell is often mistaken for the head of the Catholic Church in Australia. This is incorrect. He is the Cardinal and Archbishop of Sydney, but being a cardinal does not give him jurisdiction over other bishops, or the church in general outside his archdiocese.
We discussed new projects that I could be assigned at the conference this morning.
It is about a protest to a president, maybe George W. Bush...
US President Theodore Roosevelt was the first US president to create and give what we now take for granted, the press conference. Theodore Roosevelt created what some historians call a "bridgehead" to the White House.As an aside, Roosevelt also created the White House and relegated the term of Executive Mansion to the historians.
Invited talk is when the organizers of the conference invite you to give a talk, contributed talk is when you yourself submit a paper for a conference. TA.
