For the first time since the start of the war, the foreign ministers of the US, UK and USSR along with the Chinese Ambassador to USSR sat down to discuss a definitive plan for a post- war world. By this time, the Allied forces had set their sight on total victory. The conferences in Moscow allowed the Allied foreign ministers to sit down and discuss the establishment of a new world order after they defeat the Axial forces.
The most important event of this conference was the agreement with the United States and the USSR to establish a world organisation as soon as the war was over. This marked the beginning of a strong alliance that would eventually win the Second World War.
The conference resulted in the signing of the Joint Four- Nation Declaration, the Declaration Regarding Italy, the Declaration on Austria, and the Statement On Atrocities. These documents were signed by the governments of the USA, the UK, and USSR.
This conference was an important step in the establishment of the United Nations since the declaration signed at the end of this conference pledged that the foreign ministers recognise '...the necessity of insuring a rapid and orderly transition from war to peace and of establishing and maintaining international peace and security with the least diversion of the world's human and economic resources for armaments.'
