How much did Britain really win WW2?

@Ashtonian will have some wild views on this.

Russians killed about 75% of the German soldiers that died in WW2. But Russia weren’t at war with Germany until the Germans marched into their lands. The German top Brass thought they’d be done before Christmas and didn’t prepare its troops for the brutal Russian winters. It got bogged down and its equipment wasn’t suited to the weather and conditions.

Edit. Oh and Stalingrad

Still some debate about this. Some historians believe, that Russia was planning to invade Europe towards Germany in 1942. Germany decided to invade Russia a year earlier. War between Russia and Germany was inevitable.
Russia was also supplying Germany with a lot of oil prior to them being at war.
