Who's To Blame For The Cold War

Cold War was a state of political and military tension after World War II. During the Cold War era, two major political beliefs were involved in the Cold War: Democracy, which was the US and its allies, and communism, which was the Soviet Union and its allies. The Cold War was caused by of the action’s that were taken by the USSR resulting in a Cold War. There are a lot of reasons that can show why USSR is to blame, however, the most important ones are: Stalin: the major cause of the Cold War, and the building of stress by the USSR due to an atomic bomb development. USSR’s communist, Joseph Stalin, was a major cause of the Cold War. This is because Stalin desired to dominate the world under communism. His takeover of Eastern Europe was seen to be his first step towards Cold War. “This was started by USSR picking on the countries that were not in any shape or form of fighting against the Eastern Europe countries. Soon this made those countries either an allies of USSR or, USSR taking over them.” (Strauss, p.189). As that was happening in Eastern Europe the people over the world did not want a communist party ruling over them. This thought truly got people scared, and, the thoughts of the Cold War started to evoke. Soon, Stalin wanted to increase the communism throughout the world because he wanted to dominate the world and what better way to do it than by increasing communism. But the western countries wanted to prevent communism from spreading, which surely made some enemies against Stalin. But the biggest reason was because they did not want dictatorship (communism) over them.
You could debate forever as to who is to blame for the Cold War but the threats and the propaganda techniques, the recklessness, and the selfishness and non-humanitarian just opened everyone's eye toward the nature of the USSR. All this just sets them apart of everyone else. Therefore, the USSR are to blame for the Cold
