Who were the opposing forces in the Battle of Leningrad?

Answer 1

Germany and Russia. 1941 Germany was halted for the firt time in the Easrtern front but this battle was not soo important because of small casualties and that Leningrad was not a big Industrious city as Stalingrad.(German Big Defeat)there where only 11,000 casualties among the German army and much more in Russian Lines,

Answer 2

The Reds, the Whites and the Greens were the three opposing forces in the Russian Civil War.

The Reds were the Bolsheviks (later called Communists) and their supporters under Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky.

The Whites were forces that were anti-Bolshevik but with different objectives in mind. Some wanted to restore the monarchy. Some wanted to impose a democratic constitutional government. Some wanted to impose a military Dictatorship.

The Greens were anarchists, but not in the sense of having a lawless society. They just wanted no government at all so they could be left to themselves and live in peace with no oppressing government over them at all.

In fact one should add the troops originating from 14 countries at least. One should read Siberian adventure, from general William S. Graves who was the chief of the US expeditionnary corpse.

Answer 3

The Bolsheviks, or Reds and their Red Army opposed the so-called White Russians and their White Army.
