The Soviet Union was hoping to drive the western allies out of Berlin, so they could occupy the whole city which was located 128 miles deep inside East Germany. The Soviet Union never like the arrangement after World War II to have the city of Berlin divided among the allied governments. I also think that the Soviets felt they deserved to occupy the entire city because of the tremendous losses they suffered taking Berlin from the Nazis. Over 300,000 Russians were killed taking the city.

This was a result of the Berlin Blockade during the Cold War. The Germans were surrounding the city of Berlin due to the fact that that city was Democratic and all around it was Communist.

Also because Germany was not allowing them to get goods because they were trying to turn everybody Communist.

Did the Berlin airlift increase tensions?
Yes. Because Stalin wanted to block off Berlin from the USA because they were trying to help them by introducing the Marshall Plan. Therefore, when he set up the Berlin Blockade and America knew that the only way into Berlin was air (if the USA tried to violently enter Berlin any other way this would have been seen as an act of war) they flew over their planes to provide aid (The Marshall Plan) this greatly frustrated Stalin. However, he realised that he couldn't do anything about it and realised the Berlin Blockade was not working so had to re-open connections.
