Question

1. which us action was the most direct and immediate response to the soviet blockade of west berlin?

airlifting supplies to people in west berlin

creating the north atlantic treaty organization

withdrawing military forces from west berlin

providing financial support to help rebuild european nations

clear all

Explanation:

The Soviet blockade of West Berlin aimed to cut off the city from Western aid. Airlifting supplies directly addressed the immediate need of the people in West Berlin, bypassing the blockade. NATO was a broader alliance formed later. Withdrawing forces would have conceded to the Soviets. Rebuilding European nations (like through the Marshall Plan) was a longer - term effort not directly tied to the blockade's immediate resolution.

Answer:

A. Airlifting supplies to people in West Berlin
