Question

When was the Iron Curtain completed?

Answer 1

The Iron Curtain was a concept used to describe the division between Western Europe and the Soviet-controlled Eastern Europe following World War II, rather than a real construction finished on a certain date. But by 1949, when the majority of Eastern European nations had installed communist regimes influenced by the Soviet Union, this separation had been firmly established, and the “Iron Curtain” had been completed as a political and intellectual barrier.
