According to Winston Churchill, the Soviet Union´s true desire was to expand their power and the communist ideas to as many countries as they could.

Explanation:

In this speech, Churchill argues that Soviet Russia did not wanted war but to show their military power as a "propaganda" to make other weaker communist countries believe that there was a war going on, only to take advantage of the results, poverty and resentment, and use those results on their benefit.

Finally in the last sentence, W. Churchill arguments that the Soviets did not want to see the western countries weak, on the contrary Soviets wanted to see them strong.
