How the Berlin crisis of 1948 affected the cold war?

The Berlin Crisis of 1948 significantly heightened tensions in the Cold War by solidifying the ideological divide between the Soviet Union and the Western Allies. The Soviet blockade of West Berlin aimed to force the Allies out of the city, leading to the Berlin Airlift, in which the U.S. and its allies supplied the city by air for nearly a year. This confrontation not only demonstrated the determination of the West to resist Soviet expansion but also marked a turning point that entrenched the division of Europe into East and West, contributing to the long-term geopolitical struggle that characterized the Cold War.
