Conclusion

As we could not pinpoint the blame of the cold war to a particular country, we have analysied this problem in a few aspects and come out with the following arguements :

For USA to be blame :

- At Yalta, Roosevelt did not define what was meant by a sphere of influence

- Roosevelt showed a lack of trust in Stalin

-USA tested the atomic bomb - caused tensions between the countries

-Marshall Aid

-NATO

For USSR to be blame :- Insisted border to be moved into Poland

- Cominform

- Comecon

-Warsaw Pact

- Took over countries that were freed by Germany

For both to be blame :
- lack of trust between leaders

- interested in own interests

-ideological difference
