Answer 1

Good day, Abby.

My name is Francis Kahura, and I'm a brand-new Wyzant tutor. Your question is now a little vague, so could you please be a little more specific? Remember that the Allies partitioned Germany in 1945. The Western Allies (France, the United States, and the United Kingdom) were to control Western Germany, while the Soviet Union would control the East. If your question was whether or not East Germany should be included in the US Marshall Plan, that's a different story because they technically did help Germany rebuild after Adolf Hitler's death and the Third Reich's subsequent defeat. The point I'm trying to make here is that the US and the Western Allied powers of the United Kingdom and France focused on West Germany, and the former even tried sending economic aid east, but Joseph Stalin's blockade forced the US to stop sending aid to his side of Germany and focus on theirs.

I hope this helps you with your essay, Abby. My advice to you is to explain the Allied partition of Germany between the United States, United Kingdom, and France in the west and the Soviet Union in the east. Then explain the Berlin Blockade and how it forced the US to focus on the Western half, leaving the Eastern half at the mercy of Joseph Stalin's totalitarian regime. But don't overlook one critical factor: the Cold War between the United States and its pro-Western allies in the newly formed NATO and the Soviet Union and its Communist allies in the Eastern bloc, known as the Warsaw Pact.

Please let me know as soon as possible if you have any questions or concerns via the company website.

Francis.
