Partly the distrust was due to Stalin's personal paranoia. Stalin trusted no one. The one and only person he ever brought himself to trust was Adolph Hitler, when they were partners in crime, each merrily invading his neighbors between 1939 and 1941. And then his buddy Hitler stabbed him in the back and invaded Russia.
There was a more concrete reason for the distrust though. Both the US, and to a greater extent the UK had sent military forces to Russia just after WWI ended, to try to help the "White Russians" beat the Reds, the communists, of whom Stalin was one, and who nevertheless held on and eventually were able to consolidate their control over Russia. So the US and the UK were unsuccessful in strangling the communist revolution in Russia in the crib. But they had continued to be vocal in denouncing communism in general and the Soviet Union in particular. The Russians had never forgotten this.
Stalin was a dictator (emphasis on DICK] He was an absolute ruler.Power mad. There was no "Soviet Union" There was a gang of criminals much as there is now. It is an amazing fact that rumours and legends start from tiny origins and grow to huge dimensions
The Soviet Union mistrusted the United States and Great Britain during World War II primarily due to differing ideologies and historical tensions. The USSR was wary of the Western powers' capitalist systems and their previous refusal to recognize the Bolshevik government after the Russian Revolution. Additionally, the delayed opening of a second front in Europe, which the Soviets felt was essential to relieve pressure on their forces, further fueled suspicions of Western intentions. This mistrust laid the groundwork for post-war tensions that eventually contributed to the Cold War.
