In January 1943 President Roosevelt announced at Casablanca that the Allies would not be satisfied with anything short of unconditional surrender from the Axis Powers. Had FDR. discussed this formula with his American colleagues and with his allies? Was Churchill as surprised by the formula as he was later to suggest? What were the immediate - and long-term - effectn of the policy?
