Which of the two superpowers do you think contributed more to the Cold War tensions during the 1950s?
The Soviet Union who contributed the most to the tensions between the two super powers, but for a completely different reason. My reasoning is simple: they threw up the " Iron Curtain " and allowed no one to view what was going on behind that curtain. People become very suspicious and scared of just about everything and everyone when they can't see. Cover your face with a black vale and see the reactions you get. The USSR then, set themselves up to become the boogieman of the world.
