at which conference were the terms of membership created for the united nations?
the dumbarton oaks
the participation of belarus and ukraine at the conference came as a result of roosevelt and churchill's concession to joseph stalin, the leader of russia. stalin had originally requested that all republics of the soviet union have membership in the united nations, but the us government launched a counterproposal in which all us states obtain membership in the united nations. this counterproposal encouraged stalin to attend the yalta conference by accepting ukraine and belarus's admission to the united nations. this was intended to ensure a balance of power within the united nations, which, in the opinion of the soviets, was unbalanced in favor of the western countries. for this purpose, modifications were made to the constitutions of the two republics in question, so that belarus and ukraine's international legal subjects were limited, while they were still part of the soviet union.
