Hitler claimed many times that Mussolini's blunder cost him a delay in Operation Barbarossa but it's debatable. In my opinion, it played a role, but not as much as the Russian winter or the Soviet resistance. Perhaps the Yugoslavian and Greek Resistances, mainly their role in Operation Mincemeat, played more significant role in the Allied victory
