Berlin Blockade (1948–49)
On the Stalin’s Soviet Union map as “The Berlin blockade”
Jun 1948–May 1949 — Stalin severed road and rail links to Berlin’s Western sectors. The Western allies kept the city supplied by air for eleven months. The blockade hastened the creation of NATO and the West German state; the Cold War atlas follows it.
