Origins of the Cold War - Wikipedia

In 1918 Britain sent in money and some troops to support the anti-Bolshevik "White" counter-revolutionaries. This policy was spearheaded by Minister of War Winston Churchill.[9] France, Japan and the United States en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origins_o…
also sent forces to help decide the Russian Civil War in the Whites’ favor. Lenin made peace overtures to Wilson, and the American leader responded by sending diplomat William Bullitt to Moscow.
Bullitt was born to a prominent Philadelphia family, the son of Louisa Gross (Horwitz) [5] and William Christian Bullitt Sr. His grandfather was John Christian Bullitt, founder of the law firm today known as Drinker Biddle & Reath.[6] He graduated from Yale University in 1912,
after having been voted "most brilliant" in his class. He briefly attended Harvard Law School but dropped out on the death of his father in 1914. At Yale, he was a member of Scroll and Key.
