Another key Cold War question

Here's another question "they" always ask you about the Cold War: exactly who started it? Who gets the blame for divided Europe? The Soviet Union always believed it was the United States, and the United States always blamed the Soviet Union. Who do you believe is most responsible? On what basis would a former Soviet citizen declare the US the cause of the Cold War, and ditto for an American citizen vis-a-vis Russia.

It's not as easy a question as you might think...
