Written Essay Week 5 Diana Cucuz 0049650 History 4JJ6E Diane Labrosse October 2nd 2003 Warren F. Kimball, in his article entitled, ‘Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Successful Wartime Diplomacy,’ offers an intelligent and articulate view of Roosevelt’s diplomatic strategy and wartime foreign policy. Kimball portrays Roosevelt not as the Wilsonian idealist that he has often been described as, but rather as a practical man who, through diplomatic negotiations, sought to create a postwar world that would result in a long lasting peace and a new world order. In order to do so, Roosevelt was correct in maintaining a policy of vague promises and little commitment towards regional agreements. While Roosevelt’s policy has come under much criticism, it would ultimately be necessary in order to fulfill his long-term goals. Kimball begins with outlining the talks at Tehran, in which discussions rarely involved postwar issues, but rather consisted of the key issues, key issues to Roosevelt however, mainly the creation of a second front through an Anglo-American invasion of northern France, and ultimately of a common front against Japan.
