Marshall Plan

Recap Cold War Yalta & Potsdam Conferences Iron Curtain Containment Truman Doctrine Primary Sources due tomorrow

Western Europe 21 million people homeless Industrial, agricultural, infrastructure destroyed  Steel, tractors, crops, livestock  France – destruction = 3x national GDP Poverty leads to desperation (socialism????) Secretary of State, George C. Marshall, proposes a European Recovery Plan (Marshall Plan) in 1947 $17 billion or 7% of federal budget (48-52) 17 countries participated: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, Turkey, United Kingdom, and West Germany.

Results 1. US post—WWII economic depression did not happen. 2. Europe recovers economically 3. US-Europe economic ties created 4. Pro-US democratic governments elected in Western Europe. 5. Foundation for NATO 1. North Atlantic Treaty Organization

Berlin

Berlin Airlift 1 st showdown between US & USSR US, Eng, FR united controlled zones in W. Berlin.  Berlin divided into E. Berlin (Soviet) and W. Berlin (US) Stalin refused German reunification of Berlin and Germany. W. Berlin is a beacon for refugees from all over Eastern Europe. Escape to W. Berlin is like fleeing to the US. Stalin demands US leave W. Berlin. Soviet military occupies/shuts road, rail and water transportation into W. Berlin

Berlin Airlift From June, 1948 to May, 1950 some 200,000 flights carrying millions of tons of supplies to W. Berlin  Flights landing/taking off every few minutes. Only way for Stalin to halt the airlift is shoot down the planes. That will lead to war. US has atomic bomb, Soviets do not. Stalin lifts the blockade.

Collective Security Berlin Airlift necessitates an alliance between US and West Europe. April, 1949 – Canada, US, Belgium, Britain, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Portugal form NATO. Collective Security – an attack on one is an attack on all. Peacetime/wartime alliance. First peacetime military alliance in US history Abandon the Monroe Doctrine. Soviets form the Warsaw Pact: USSR, Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania.

1949 Soviets successfully detonate an atomic bomb. Both sides now capable of mass destruction. Response:  US develops the Hydrogen Bomb (10x+ more powerful)  Federal Civil Defense Administration  Duck and Cover. Survive an attack Chinese civil war gets settled: Mao Zedong (communist) defeats Jiang Jieshi (nationalist – US ally). US gave billions in military support to Jiang Jieshi. All lost. Nationalists flee to Taiwan (Formosa). Peoples Republic of China created. US losing the war against communism.
