History
Kingdom of Yugoslavia attempted at the last moment to normalize its relations with Soviet Union. In exchange for official recognition and closure of probably last embassy of Imperial Russia which was located across Yugoslav royal court, Soviet Union would provide protection from German attack but these moves of Yugoslav government were too little late.
It would be in 1944 when Soviets troops finally arrived in Yugoslavia providing aid in liberation of Serbia, Vojvodina and Baranja. Also massive amount of military equipment arrived in late 1944 and early 1945 allowing Tito’s Partisans to arm and mobilize huge numbers.
