Answers
Answer:
2. This difference in ideology was a major source of the conflict between the two nations because throughout the Cold War, the Soviet Union sought to expand communism to other regions and the United States sought to stop it with its policy of containment.
3. At the Potsdam meeting, the most pressing issue was the postwar fate of Germany. The Soviets wanted a unified Germany, but they also insisted that Germany be completely disarmed. Truman, along with a growing number of U.S. officials, had deep suspicions about Soviet intentions in Europe.
4. In June 1948, Stalin decided to stop providing vital supplies to west Berlin as its citizens strongly rejected communist candidates in an election. In response to this came the Berlin Airlift. This consisted in the western power providing by plane all the ressources needed by the western berliners.
