1. Germany lost the 2nd world war, she not only lost the war but she lost her land. The major powers took Germany, Germany was split into 4 half's, The Soviet Union, US,UK, and France. Berlin was cut into half as well a half for the soviets and a half for the western allies. Tension between the sides caused the division of Berlin, especially between the US and the USSR. 2. They are trying to win the people of Berlin, they know that they cannot win them by force, they have to be nice to them. 3. The relationship between the US and the USSR is already bad, the airlift made it worst. Both sides know that they cannot control all of Berlin, but they want to control the majority of it. At the end of everything the USSR had a nuclear strike on Kazakhstan, it was like a warning to the US. The relations between the two sides at that moment faded. 4. It supported western Berlin very much, it had a huge influence over the berlin people, especially the drop of sweets by parachutes, for me that was a excellent strategy. Without the airlift western Berlin would not have survived and the US would not have won!!
