Stalin was dying and therefore the people of Russia lost hope in him. They looked to a new leader and the U.S. did not see that they wanted peace, because after WWII Stalin proclaimed that War with the US was inevitable. Stalin fled to Switzerland because he felt that a military coup was coming. Being Stalin he was correct of course, and the US granted him diplomatic immunity to enter the US under a agreement that he could be treated for his disease and in turn give up information regarding the Soviet Union's defense systems. The new Militaristic government pushed for a industrialization and ultimately Nuclear Weapons causing the Cold war.
