    D) cause the Western sector of Berlin to surrender to Soviet forces

    Explanation:

    After the end of World War II, Germany was occupied militarily by the countries that had defeated Hitler's armies. England, France, the United States, and the Soviet Union divided the country into areas of influence in each of these countries. The same division occurred in the city of Berlin. With the worsening of Cold War hostilities between the USSR and the US-allied countries, the Soviets decreed the Berlin Blockade between 1948 and 1949.

    The Berlin Blockade was a move taken by the Soviets as a result of escalating hostilities and economic investments that both the US and the USSR were carrying out in war-torn European countries.

    This made Germany the scene of the heightened tension between the two poles of the Cold War. The reaction of the USSR was to cut off land and river communications from the city of Berlin, putting pressure on Westerners. The Berlin Blockade was made possible because the city was located in the Soviet part of Germany.
