Early Concerns Even before World War II had ended, tensions between Soviet Union and USA had arose  Concerns about Germany USSR wanted them weak USA wanted them to rebuild USSR was Communist USA was Capitalist

What’s the BIG difference? USA Soviet Union

1945 Newsreel: The Yalta Conference begins

Yalta Conference Roosevelt, Stalin, and Churchill met to discuss the war and other issues  Poland Polish leaders fled to Britain during the war USSR pushed Germany out of Poland and wanted communist leaders to take over FDR and Churchill wanted Poland to have free elections to decide who would lead them  Compromised  Communists would keep the established government, but elections would be held as soon as possible

Yalta Conference Declaration of Liberated Europe  Gave the right to have all European countries to choose their form of government Germany  Divided Germany into four zones, Berlin also France, Great Britain, USSR, and USA would each control a zone  USSR wanted reparations Stalin almost immediately started violating the issues discussed

Germany after the war France Great Britain USSR USA Each would each control a zone Does the land distribution make sense? Why do you think they agreed to this?

Potsdam Conference Truman and Stalin met to decide how to handle Germany  Stalin still wanted reparations, Truman wanted Germany to rebuild Compromised  Stalin would take materials from the other zones to make up for the loss of his country

Potsdam Conference Neither Truman nor Stalin was happy with the outcome of Potsdam  Iron Curtain is drawn East was communist, West was not

Cold War The Long Telegram  Soviets refusing to cooperate  George Kennan “Russian sense of insecurity” Fear of the West, intensified by communist ideas Impossible to reach any type of agreement Major economic and political weaknesses Soviet System would eventually fall apart Containment

Truman Doctrine Truman asks Congress for $400 Million to fight Communist Aggression in Turkey and Greece Became known as the Truman Doctrine Fight Communism worldwide

The Marshall Plan Western Europe in turmoil Secretary of State George Marshall proposed the Marshall Plan  Aid to European nations to rebuild their economies Soviets and satellite nations rejected the offer  Came up with their own economic program  Further separated nations

The Marshall Plan Pumped billions of dollars to Western Europe Recovery weakened the appeal of communism
