The three postwar terms agreed upon by the Allied leaders at the Potsdam Conference are:
1. **The borders of European nations would be redrawn.**
2. **Germany would be forced to pay reparations to the Allies.**
3. **Leaders of Nazi Germany would be made to stand trial for war crimes.**
While the Potsdam Conference discussed the future of Germany and Europe, the specific agreement on Germany being permanently divided into two separate nations occurred later, as the Cold War tensions intensified. The establishment of communist governments in Eastern European nations was also part of broader geopolitical tensions that developed after the conference.
