The Soviet bloc consisted of the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries that were under Communist regimes. It was formed after World War II, but it was not the turning point in the war. It did not improve relations between the Soviet Union and the United States, and it was not designed to prevent supplies from entering West Berlin. The alliance setup by the United States was known as NATO, which is not the same as the Soviet bloc.
