done

Explanation:

The Soviet victory at Stalingrad was crucial as it led to a large - scale loss of Axis troops (around 800,000) and marked a major shift in the tide of the war on the eastern front against the Axis. The alliance between the US and USSR was not the main significance here. The liberation of France and Belgium happened later with D - Day. And there was no capture of Hitler's second - in - command at Stalingrad.

Answer:

Axis forces lost 800,000 troops and the war on the eastern front turned against them.
