In the Shadow of the Cold War: the Main Problems of the Development of Economic Cooperation between Germany and the USSR in the 1950s — 1960s.

Economic ties have traditionally played an important role in bilateral relations between the FRG and the USSR. The article examines the initial stage of the formation and development of trade and economic cooperation between countries from 1950 to 1969. The priority influence of the political factor on the development of economic relations is highlighted, primarily for the West German side. The main actors, driving forces of trade and economic cooperation and the main problems constraining it are singled out. As a result, on the basis of the analysis, a general assessment of the economic policy of the two countries in relation to each other in the period under study is made.
