How did the relationship between the US and the USSR change during the Cold War?​

History

Answer:

The relationship between the US and the USSR changed during the Cold War because the two countries transformed from being allies to being fierce rivals.  

Explanation:

During World War II, the United States and the Soviet Union fought together as allies against the Axis powers. However, the relationship between the two nations was a tense one. Americans had long been wary of Soviet communism and concerned about Russian leader Joseph Stalin’s tyrannical rule of his own country. For their part, the Soviets resented the Americans’ decades-long refusal to treat the USSR as a legitimate part of the international community as well as their delayed entry into World War II, which resulted in the deaths of tens of millions of Russians. After the war ended, these grievances ripened into an overwhelming sense of mutual distrust and enmity.  

Postwar Soviet expansionism in Eastern Europe fueled many Americans’ fears of a Russian plan to control the world. Meanwhile, the USSR came to resent what they perceived as American officials’ bellicose rhetoric, arms buildup and interventionist approach to international relations. In such a hostile atmosphere, no single party was entirely to blame for the Cold War; in fact, some historians believe it was inevitable.

The policy of cash and carry, the destroyers for naval bases deal, and the lend-lease act were all designed to
Dima020 [189]
All of the aforementioned were designed to help the Allied powers during World War II. Even though the US wanted to stay "neutral" when World War II broke out, they did want to benefit by maintaining economic relationships with these countries.

The Lend-Lease Act is a perfect example. This allowed the US government to lend weapons and other materials to nations like France, Great Britain, and China during World War II. If the goods weapons/materials were destroyed, it was on the country using them to replace it.

The Cash and Carry policy was another example of the US government helping the Allied powers. This policy stated that countries may buy materials from the US, as long as they pay in cash and provide transportation for the materials at their own risk.

Both of these show that even though the US was not technically in the war yet, they heavily favored the Allied powers.

What prevented earlier u.s. participation in world war ii?
babymother [125]
<span>Prior to WW2, America had an isolationist  foreign policy. It never joined the League of Nations, and staunchly avoided  taking side with any colonialist power.

Anyway, America's priority at the time was  to tackle the depression (which saw unemployment rose to 25%). On the whole the  American population and their politicians were totally ignorant or blindsided to  the frighten events in Germany and Japan, until it was too late for the  countries invaded by the Axis aggressors.</span>

How did Westward Expansion contribute to tension between North and South?
Vlad [161]

Explanation:

Development has contributed to financial prosperity and has ignited the obvious fate, and it has also led to sectional conflict over slaves. There were a lot of segregationists in the north whereas the south was predominantly pro-slavery, which created sectional friction since each person needs to see both values spread to the west.
