Abstract

Nakon što je u početnim godinama Drugog svjetskog rata ovladala većim dijelom Europe,
Njemačka je 22.6.1941. započela invaziju Saveza Sovjetskih Socijalističkih Republika. Napad je
na početku bio izrazito uspješan, no nije doveo do potpunog sloma neprijatelja. Kako bi se
povećala sposobnost Njemačke da izdrži dugi rat, njene oružane snage pokušavaju u ljetu 1942.
godine osvojiti sovjetska naftna polja na Kavkazu. U sklopu ove operacije njemačka 6. armija
napala je Staljingrad. Zbog tvrdoglavog otpora sovjetskih armija u gradu i zbog brojnih
pogrešaka njemačkog vodstva ona ne uspijeva ovladati Staljingradom, te je nakon uspješnog
sovjetskog protunapada opkoljena i uništena. Nakon poraza u Staljingradu Sile Osovine gube
inicijativu na istočnom bojištu te su uglavnom potiskivane s teritorija Saveza Sovjetskih
Socijalističkih Republika.

Abstract (english)

After conquering most of Europe in the first years of the Second World War, Germany invaded
the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics on June 22nd, 1941. The attack was initially successful,
but failed to completely defeat the enemy. In order to improve Germany's ability to sustain a
long war, in summer of 1942 her armed forces attempt to seize the Soviet oil fields in the
Caucasus. As part of this operation, the German 6th Army attacked Stalingrad. Due to fierce
soviet resistance in the city and due to the numerous mistakes of the German leadership, it failed
to conquer Stalingrad, and after a successful Soviet counterattack, it was surrounded and
destroyed. After the defeat in Stalingrad, the Axis Powers lost the initiative on the eastern front
and were slowly pushed out of the territory of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
