Czechoslovakia was part of Declaration by United Nations and was a founding member of United Nations.

I felt I had to deviate slightly from your text to make it sound right, otherwise it might sound as if it were written by a Russian:
"after THE German invasion of Russia.."
"part of THE Declaration by United Nations and was a founding member of THE United Nations"
"...a coalition government with Communist ministers, INCLUDING the prime minister and the minister THE of interior."
Also, for some reason unknown to me, we always say THE Sudetenland, but I missed that one.
