Uncertainty about post-War intentions contributes to tension.
Nonetheless, two countries remain suspicious toward each other. The US utilize its vast industrial resources by creating Lend-Lease program to supply allies, including the Soviet Union. Circumstances changed radically in 1941, however, with Germany's attack on their former Russian allies in June of that year followed by Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor in December, seeing the United States and the Soviet Union in War as allies. At the outbreak of World War II, Soviet Union was allied with Nazi Germany while the United States maintained neutrality. The United States refused to recognize the newly formed Soviet Union until 1933. In 1918, US troops were deployed in the ports of Vladivostok and Archangel and they provided the anti-Bolshevik White Army with supplies and food. It was the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia in 1917 which would alter the course of US-Russian relations for the remainder of the 20th century, threat of Communist insurgency and Revolution constant fear for American governments and public. Countries continued to co-operate, and when both had trading interests in China, they operated as military allies in the Boxer Rebellion, and later when the United States entered World War I in 1917. During the early 19th century, countries had a period of active relations and co-operation, leading in 1867 to the sale of Alaska by Imperial Russia for 7. For more than two centuries, and despite being situated in different hemispheres, US and Russia, as they grow to become global superpowers, have had profound effect on each other's foreign policy and economy. The United States and Russia have been in contact since the US declared its independence in 1776, with formal relations established in 1807. * Please keep in mind that all text is machine-generated, we do not bear any responsibility, and you should always get advice from professionals before taking any actions * Please keep in mind that all text is machine-generated, we do not bear any responsibility, and you should always get advice from professionals before taking any actions.
