The Soviet Union did not build the Berlin Wall, it was built by and on the order of the government of the German Democratic Republic ('DDR', called 'East Germany' by the English-Language press).
It was built to stop citizens of the German Democratic Republic emigrating to West Berlin and from there to The Federal Republic of Germany (called 'West Germany' by the English-Language press).
The border between the DDR and the Federal republic had already been closed. In order to stop emigration it was also necessary to close the border between East Berlin (part of the DDR), and West Berlin.
