The Soviets blockaded Berlin in an effort to consolidate their control over the city and to challenge the Western Allies' presence in West Berlin. The blockade, initiated in June 1948, aimed to force the Allies to abandon their plans for a unified West Germany and to demonstrate Soviet power during the early stages of the Cold War. In response, the Allies organized the Berlin Airlift to supply the city and maintain their position, ultimately leading to a significant standoff between the East and West.
