Answer:

The United States responded to the Berlin Blockade by giving air supply of food, medicines and other necessities to the residents of West Berlin for almost a year.

Explanation:

The <u>Berlin Blockade</u> was the refusal of the German government to allow any entry of people into West Berlin. This was <u>done in an effort to curb the power of the Western Allies in some sectors of Berlin</u>. This was a <u>result of the British and American government's refusal to allow more voice to Russia on the issue of Germany's economic future</u>. The Soviets blocked any form of transportation, be it railways, roadways, or even the canals, into West Berlin.

With the <u>blockade of any transportation declared on June 24, 1948</u>, the United States decided to respond to this move by arranging its own transportation. The <u>Berlin Airlift began just two days after the declaration of the blockade when the Truman administration began the supply of food, water, and medicines by air support to the areas of West Berlin</u>. This was how the United States responded to the blockade move of the Soviet Union. The <u>airlift continued for almost a whole year, with the US supplying the necessities to more than 2 million people of West Berlin. </u>
