Warsaw Uprising - Lack of outside support
Main article: Lack of outside support in the Warsaw Uprising
The limited landings by the 1st Polish army, mentioned above, represented the only external forces who arrived to support the uprising. There was limited support in terms of airdrops from the Western allies, (the Royal Air Force and the Polish Air Force made 223 sorties and lost 34 aircraft), but the effect of these airdrops were mostly psychological, as all but one American airdrop had to be carried out using bases in faraway Italy. Although the Soviets briefly (13 September–28) provided some airdrops, without parachutes, they actively prevented Allied assistance by denying landing rights to Allied aircraft and even shot down a number of those which carried supplies from Italy.
American support was also limited. After Stalin's objections to supporting the uprising, Churchill telegrammed Roosevelt on August 25 and proposed sending planes in defiance of Stalin, to "see what happens". Unable and unwilling to upset Stalin before the Yalta Conference, Roosevelt replied on August 26 with: I do not consider it advantageous to the long-range general war prospect for me to join you in the proposed message to Uncle Joe.
Also of significant note was the existence of an American airbase at Poltava in the Ukraine, from which an airdrop was made during the "Frantic Mission" in mid-September. However, this action infuriated Stalin, who immediately forbade all Allied presence in Soviet airspace.
