Answer
A
find a way to force Germany to surrender.
B
make plans for the United Nations.
C
agree on strategies to defeat Japan.
D
finalize the decisions made at Yalta.

Explanation

By the time of the Potsdam Conference in July 1945, Germany had already surrendered, and the Allies were focused on arranging postwar Europe. They discussed and finalized details of agreements made earlier at Yalta, including Germany’s occupation and administration. The choice about defeating Japan is tempting because the war in the Pacific continued, but Potsdam’s main goal was settling the postwar arrangements.
