 the declaration of war on Japan by the Soviet Union on August 9, 1945.

Many opponents of the atomic bomb believed there were alternatives, and that Japan might have surrendered without the bombs being dropped. One of these alternatives was to wait for the Russians.

Japan needed to accept the inevitability of defeat in order to stop its fighting. This could not come from the Americans, but could have been delivered by the Russians because of the strength of their army and their geographical location. Stalin had initially planned to declare war on Japan in August 15, and the U. S. knew this. It seems like by that date, leaders from Japan, Russia and the U. S. all believed this would be a turning point for Japan. Yet the U. S., knowing this, dropped the bombs on August 6 and 9.
