Why did the soviets finally cut off Berlin from western europe?

History

Maslowich3 years ago
6 0
The Soviets sought to create a unified but demilitarized Germany under their tutelage, or as Soviet Foreign Minister Vyacheslav Molotov told U.S. Secretary of State James F. Byrnes in 1946, a united Germany that could be neutralized after Russia received industrial reparations from Germany. This strategy was a response to a 150-year history of repeated Western assaults on Russia, including World War I and Napoleon's 1812 invasion. Stalin considered it essential to destroy Germany's capacity for another war, which conflicted with the U.S. desire to rebuild Germany as the economic center of a stable Europe. (Stalin assumed that Japan and Germany could menace the Soviet Union once again by the 1960s.)
On June 24, 1948, the Soviet Union blocked access to the arteries of the three Western-held sectors of Berlin, which was deep within the Soviet zone of Germany, by cutting off all rail and road routes going through Soviet-controlled territory in Germany. The Western powers had never negotiated a pact with the Soviets guaranteeing these rights. Amid the fallout of the London Conference, the Soviets now rejected arguments that occupation rights in Berlin and the use of the routes during the previous three years had given the West legal claim to unimpeded use of the highways and railroads.

The most widespread Indian groups in the West were the Palin Indians. However, the great white migration accelerated the demised
TEA [102]

Answer:

The Plain Indians are the Native American tribes and First Nation band governments who have historically lived on the Great Plains. And, also the Canadian Prairies in North America.

Their economy is based on the hunting-farming cultures for centuries prior to European contact. Historic horse cultures that flourished from the 17th century through the late 19th century was well documented. <em>Their nomadic lifestyle of hunting animals, living within an enclosed cluster, raising crops as well as trading with other tribes was successful till the white migration to their lands. </em>

The migration led to the fight between the whites who tried to dominate them and the original land owners. after the success of the war (for the white), the cultures and traditions of the Plain Indians were banished. In schools, their history was not taught leading to loss of information about them.
