The correct option is D
The advance of the Axis forces was stopped by the Allies in 1942 after the defeat of Japan in several naval battles and the European troops of the Axis in North Africa and in the decisive battle of Stalingrad. In 1943, as a result of the various setbacks of the Germans in Eastern Europe, the Allied invasion of Fascist Italy and the victories of the United States in the Pacific, the Axis lost the initiative and had to undertake the strategic withdrawal in all the fronts.
