The Berlin
Blockade 1948-1949
- Stalins desire to get the western allies out of
west Berlin and get control of the whole city.
He cut off all transport links (road, rail, canal)
between the west and Berlin to stop supplies
- West Berlin was determined to not give into Stalin, very
few accepted his offer of more rations for moving to the
east, many crowds gathered to ask the west for help
- Truman had a dilema, if he did nothing his
containment promise would look weak, if he sent
troops he could start war
- the blockade was a challenge and Stalin
was taking a risk, he could know what
Truman would do risking war
- it also tested the Truman Doctrine and whether he would back his words
with actions, Stalin through he wouldn't do this over Berlin
- it was the start of many stand offs
