The Soviet invasion of Manchuria on August 9, 1945, coincided with the bombing of Nagasaki, but it did not directly influence President Truman's decision to order the bombing. The primary rationale for using the atomic bomb was to hasten Japan's surrender and reduce American casualties in a potential invasion. However, the timing of the Soviet action may have reinforced the urgency for a swift conclusion to the war before the USSR could establish a strong presence in Asia.
