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

Explanation

By the time of the Potsdam Conference in July 1945, Germany had already surrendered, so forcing Germany to surrender was no longer a goal. The leaders met mainly to settle how to carry out and complete the postwar decisions they had discussed at Yalta, including how Germany would be governed. Thus, the best answer is “finalize the decisions made at Yalta.”
