The Soviet Union built the Berlin Wall to block their section (East Berlin) from the US/French/Britishcontrolled sections in West Berlin.
It appears that the German Communist Walter Ulbricht, concerned that Germans were escaping from West Germany convinced the Russians to build the wall. The construction of the wall was supervised by the East German (communist) leader
Erich Hoeneker.
