The leaders of the Western European nations were incensed over the aggressions of the Axis powers, particularly when Hitler had signed nonaggression treaties with them. The French and the British declared war on the Nazi Germans when they invaded Poland. The French and the British said they would help the Poles but they never did. The Poles felt betrayed by them.

They were resentful of the Western Europeans. The Russians came along and attacked in Poland instead. As the war progressed and more nations were invaded the more incensed and panicked the Britons became. Soon they were attacked in the Battle of Britain and The Battle of the Atlantic. Things went from bad to worse until the USA joined them in efforts to defeat the Germans. The Brits did do a good job of defeating the Germans in Africa though.

Why was the western powers do so little to stop Soviet aggression?

Western powers were hesitant to intervene decisively against Soviet aggression due to a combination of factors, including the devastation of World War II, a desire to avoid another large-scale conflict, and the complexities of the emerging Cold War dynamics. Many Western leaders believed in a policy of containment rather than direct confrontation, fearing that aggressive actions could escalate tensions into a nuclear war. Additionally, the economic and political instability in Europe made it challenging to mount a unified and robust response.

How did Mussolini get that name?

From his father. Oh. Sorry. I get the question now. BENITO Mussolini was named after Benito Juárez by his father, who was a avid Socialist. Benito Juárez was the first Mexican leader who did not have a military background, and also the first full-blooded indigenous national to serve as President of Mexico and to lead a country in the Western Hemisphere in over 300 years. Juárez installed numerous social changes that would improve the lives of the Mexican people.

How did Mussolini maintain his popularity among Western European leaders?

Mussolini was famous for his tirades against Bolshevism. Despite his fascism and aggression in Africa, he even won the admiration of Winston Churchill.
