I have to disagree. Russia was curb stomping the Germans. They asked for a new front, because why face more troops than you have to? Just because Russia could crush Germany alone doesn't mean they wanted to have to. D-Day was basically to halt the Red advance across Europe, because the Western Allies did not want Russia to own all that land.
