They blockaded all the roads leading into Berlin (east Berlin) so food and goods could be brought in to the starving German Berliners. If you can't get there by truck then fly it in the US decided. They did air drops and landed the planes to unloaded them. Eventually Stalin stopped being stubborn and let them in by road.
C. Organized a massive airlift to resupply the city.Yeah buddy
Berlin airlift.
The Berlin Airlift. Please note that Britain and France also had their sectors in Berlin and played an important part in the Airlift.
The Berlin Airlift was a military operation designed to provide food and supplies to the city of Berlin from 1948-1949. After World War II, German and the city of Berlin were divided into four sections, each controlled by a separate power: the United States, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union. Berlin was in the Soviet section of German and the Soviet Union wanted to take complete control of Berlin, so they blocked all of the roads and railways into Western Berlin in order to force the other nations to abandon the city. In response, the Western governments began flying supplies into the city in order to circumvent the Soviet blockade.
The two western powers flew supplies over the blockade into West Berlin. This act is commonly called the BERLIN AIRLIFT. The Soviet Union revered policy after a year when the Soviets ended the blockade and pemited land-transport of goods to West Berlin.
The Berlin Airlift was considered a symbol of the Cold War because it showed the fight and isolationism between the Soviet Union and US.
I don't know but the Soviet Union made Germany communist after WWII. The U.S and the Soviet Union split Berlin in half. East Berlin was communist West Berlin was noncommunist. Soviet Union got sick of U.S coming in their land to get to West Berlin. That created the Berlin Airlift. We hade to take a plane to deliver supplies. Why we hade to deliver you say? Soviet Union started to starve our half of Berlin.

The United States and Great Britain were the nations who lifted supplies into West Berlin. The Soviet Union had blockaded the city in the first place.
The Berlin Airlift was the US program to remain influential in West Berlin, Germany in response to the Soviet embargo - blocking incoming goods from West Germany to West Berlin. The airlift provided necessary goods and supplies to the residents of the city for two years, until the Soviets rescinded the trade barrier. People involved could be directly the Germans of West Berlin, the Soviets, and the Americans (specifically Harry Truman, the President at the time who gave support to the airlift).

The Berlin Crisis of 1961 began with the Soviet Union building a wall between East and West Berlin. The Soviets shut off access to West Berlin. The Allies responded with the Berlin Airlift and the crisis was resolved.

The Berlin airlift took place after the soviet union were fed up with western influence in East Germany. The Russian response was the cut off, all road and rail connection into Berlin, to prevent the allies (England, France, United States) from supplying their sectors of berlin.

The Berlin blockade and resulting airlift effectively ended the unity of the Allied Powers. The Soviet Union was now opposed to the involvement of its western partners in East Germany. The threat of war lingered and began what would become known as the Cold War.
