∙ 8y agoBefore the war, the US Government and the general public had been largely and sometimes violently anti-Communist. During the war, the US and Russia were forced by circumstances into a partnership against Hitler's Germany. They established 'friendly' relations that never became cordial.
After the war and with the common enemy defeated, mutual distrust and dislike re-established itself. Russia felt extremely threatened by US Military supremacy, especially through its newly-developed atomic bomb. Russia's efforts through espionage in the US to catch up and have an atomic bomb of their own did not help for a better relationship, nor did the Communist witch hunt of the McCarthy era in the US.
Finally, the development of an atomic bomb by the Russians led to a race for worldwide 'spheres of influence' between the USSR and the USA that ended only with the fall of Communism in 1989.
