Answer:

Because they didn't wanted to provoke war by doing it.

Step-by-step explanation:

After WW2 Germany was divided into four occupation zones - Soviet, British, American and French. Soviets were asking for more influence in the German economy, which eventually led to their blockade of Berlin.

The tension rose, but conflict was prevented as no one was prepared to start a war.
