Ah. So the Red Army soldiers aren't exhausted from three years of war and want to fight it til the end, even if they get a direct peace witht the 1939 borders restored? So the whole Soviet leadership wants to fight a war devasting the Union, instead of getting an instant ceasefire which is basically a status quo ante bellum?
You are assuming that the Soviet government would act as irrational as Hitler and decline everything that isn't a total victory.
Yes, it isn't being idiotic it is the fact that there is no way you can trust Hitler if nothing else. I think the vast majority of Red Army soldiers wanted revenge for all the atrocities the Nazis caused. Many had their wives raped, their friends murdered in POW camps, their families left starving after the Nazis stole everything. You think they would forget all that just because Hitler offered peace? Not on this planet! By 1944 the Red Army was going forward and was clearly winning. Why would they stop and not get their revenge, strengthen their country , and not have to worry about a proven lying, backstabbing, sadistic, homicidal maniac will go back on his word?
