What were the main results of the Great Patriotic War and the Second World War?

The results of World War II and the Great Patriotic War, as one of the theaters of hostilities, were the condemnation of the policy of National Socialism and fascism, the condemnation of the Holocaust and the death camps, and the post-war “redistribution” of the world between two allied blocs: the communist and the democratic. The UN was created to prevent world conflicts. Trials of Axis war criminals have been carried out. The Soviet Union annexed the territories of the former empire and extended its influence to Eastern Europe and East Germany. The period of the “cold war” began.
