>Stalin did not conceal his desperate need for trucks either, informing Roosevelt in his October 7 plea that the Red Army needed monthly supplies of "8,000 to 10,000."

What's surprising about a world leader asking his allies for help? Putin got NK to give him shells, does that mean without that Russian military would have collapsed? No, it's just something done to help the war effort.
