The Soviets distrust the US and its allies primarily due to ideological differences, viewing capitalism as a threat to their communist system. Historical events, such as the Western intervention in the Russian Civil War and the delayed opening of a second front during World War II, further fueled suspicions. The US's nuclear arsenal and its policy of containment heightened fears of aggression, leading the Soviets to perceive the West as a potential adversary seeking to undermine their influence and security. This distrust was exacerbated by Propaganda and a general atmosphere of rivalry during the Cold War.
