Which of the following increased tension between America and the Soviet Union after World War II? My best guess is B. I base my knowledge on this because I know that the Soviets believed strongly in the veto power. (Wikipedia) Am I right?

Question

The Soviets refused to allow elections in Eastern European nations.

The Soviets insisted on having veto power in the United Nations.

The United States conducted nuclear explosive tests in the atmosphere above the Soviet Union.

Answer 1

Well, I would have picked A, although I would put it much more strongly. The Soviet Union effectively took absolute control of countries like Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, East Germany ..... Google "Winston Churchill Iron Curtain speech"

Answer 2

Thanks!

Answer 3
