Geographically, Berlin was surrounded by the Soviet Zone. Each of the occupying powers - Britain, France, the USSR and the US - had a sector of Berlin. In 1948-49 Berlin in effect split into East and West Berlin. The city remained divided till the Fall of Wall in 1989.

Why was the Soviet War Memorial located in western Berlin during the cold war?

The Soviet War Memorial in western Berlin was built to honor the Soviet soldiers who died during World War II while liberating the city from Nazi control. Despite being located in the western sector, which was part of West Berlin, the memorial served as a symbol of Soviet sacrifice and a reminder of their role in the war. Its presence in the western zone highlighted the geopolitical tensions of the Cold War, as it represented the ongoing divide between East and West, and the Soviet Union's influence in post-war Germany.
