At the Yalta Conference in 1945, Alger Hiss, a close advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt, was later accused of being a communist agent. He became a central figure in the Red Scare and was eventually convicted of perjury in 1950 for denying espionage allegations. Hiss's case fueled widespread fears of communist infiltration in the U.S. government during the Cold War era.
During the Yalta Conference in February 1945, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was advised by several key figures, including Secretary of State Edward R. Stettinius Jr. and Ambassador to the Soviet Union W. Averell Harriman. Additionally, Roosevelt's close advisor and confidant, Harry Hopkins, played a significant role in the discussions. These advisors contributed to shaping the strategies and negotiations regarding post-war Europe and the establishment of the United Nations.

Franklin Roosevelt
Truthfully, the Yalta and Potsdam Conference basically let Stalin get away with what he wanted. He wanted to make the countries he defeated communist under the USSR Rule. Winston Churchill did not want to allow Stalin to do that. He warned Roosevelt of the consequences of letting Stalin have half of Germany and the rest of the nations he would conquer on the Eastern European Front. Roosevelt did not want to war with Stalin so he let him get away with it. Eisenhower kept Roosevelt's desire to let Stalin take Berlin at the end of the war. So those conferences created Eastern European communist bloc.
