Russia’s new government negotiated a peace treaty, bringing the United States into the war with the other Allied countries.

Explanation

After the Russian Revolution, the new Bolshevik government withdrew Russia from World War I and made peace with the Central Powers.

Russia’s departure did not itself give the Central Powers victory, so choice B goes too far.
