Question

Why did Stalin blockade Berlin?

A. He did not want to allow free elections in Eastern Europe.
B. He wanted to spread communism to Western Europe.
C. He wanted to send all East German food to the USSR.
D. He did not like it when the Allies unified their zones in Berlin.

Answer 1

I think it would be D. because Stalin didn't like the non-communist countries allowing that side to prosper, which is why the U.S. ended up with the food drops. I'm unsure though because I'm not sure if the Allies unified their zones in Berlin, but it seems incredibly likely.

Answer 2

Stalin blockade Berlin because he did not like it when the Allies unified their zones in Berlin.
