The Soviets viewed this demand as unacceptable for it indicated
that the United States was really taking too heavy a hand in determining what nations
ought to adopt what specific form of government. In response, Stalin went on to create
what Winston Churchill, never at a loss for words, dubbed the IRON
CURTAIN. For Churchill:
from Stettin on the Baltic to Trieste on the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended
across the continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of
central and eastern Europe -- Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade,
Bucharest and Sofia. From what I have seen of our Russian friends and allies during
the war
I am convinced that there is nothing they admire so much as strength and nothing for which
they have less respect than military weakness.
