Stalin's attempt to take Berlin ahead of his allies in 1945, led to the death of 70,000 Russian soldiers. Eisenhower made the decision not to try to beat the Soviets into Berlin due to agreements among the Allies that Berlin was to be in the Soviet sphere after the war ended....... Yes, the Soviets lost 81,116 men and the Polish Army took casualties also. That was out of an army of 2.5 million men. The Germans lost 92,000 to 100,000 killed in Berlin and about 40,000 military and civilian deaths in the Berlin area.... What were considered risks by the Russians......about 22,000,000 died in the war.
