Italian forces struck Istanbul, heavy fighting was reported in the streets but the Italians failed to take the city and open a new front. Spanish front saw another breakthrough of Italian tank destroyers pushing deeper into British territory.

TASS announces:
-Northern Front: Tallinn has been temporarily abandoned by our forces
-Central Front: we are strengthening our defenses in front of Moscow
-Southern Front: enemy attempt to cross Dnepr was repulsed
-Turkish Front: the Turkish Red Army repulsed massive enemy assault against Istanbul. Long live the Red Turkish heroes!

Anyway, comrade Stalin is already packing bags (hopefully traitorous Albion is next).
Really, the German numerical superitority in all fields (infantry, air, armor) is too big. Already masses of Medium Tank V are at the gates of Moscow. To illustrate the "capabilities" of Soviet industry - I have 23 000 manpower unused (about -100 every turn).

Yes, that is one of the reasons it is changed in version 2.15

Not only numerical but also better tech levels.

Fighter sweeps over France don't produce and defenders, skies around the Lille aircraft factory clear of enemy fighters. Some Italian planes shot up on the ground. Spanish situation fluid, reinforcements enroute. American presence is not strong enough in Spain. Burma theater fluid and with heavy losses, Japanese forces are exceptionally strong in number, but some intelligence has indicated supply is a problem for them. Additional Naval assets arriving in theater.
