Stalin viewed the West, particularly capitalist countries like the United States and Britain, with suspicion and hostility. He believed they posed a threat to the Soviet Union and its socialist ideology, fearing that they would seek to undermine or destroy communism. This perspective fueled his policies of isolation and militarization, as well as his efforts to expand Soviet influence in Eastern Europe and beyond during the Cold War. Stalin's mistrust was rooted in historical conflicts and the perceived aggressions of Western powers against the USSR.
