Description | Cartoon shows Soviet leaders Malenkov and Molotov at a banquet discussing a newspaper headline reporting "Food Riots in East Berlin." Reflects the widespread riots in Berlin and East Germany in the summer of 1953 caused, in part, by food shortages and industrial and agricultural collectivization. With the caption, suggests the callous attitude of the Russians whose policies towards East Germany were seen as largely responsible for the situation. |
