Berlin
This is Berlin.
The Berlin Airlift was a factor, supplies were flown in during Stalin's blockade.
Berlin Blockade was an international diplomatic crisis after the end of WW II. Soviet Union blocked road, railway and canal access to allied controlled part of Berlin. This led to a prolonged crisis during which allied forces airlifted supplies to the blockaded part. This was the first international crisis of the Cold War and practically spelled the onset of Cold War era. It was followed by major conflicts like Korean War and Vietnam War.
The Berlin blockade took place during the Cold War. It split the city of Berlin into two separate cities. One was under soviet rule and the other was not. The politicians involved in this were Harry S. Truman and Joseph Stalin.
The Berlin Blockade was the Soviet Union's attempt to bring all of Berlin under communist control. They closed the roads, rail lines and water routes into Berlin to attempt to starve out the population. They didn't count on the Allies supplying Berlin by air.
The blockade was more effective toward the end of the war.
The Berlin Blockade took place from June 24, 1948 - May 12, 1949. It was an international crisis during the Cold War.
