Winston Churchill used the term "iron curtain" in his 1946 speech to describe the division between Western democracies and Eastern communist countries in post-World War II Europe.

It served as a call to action for Western nations to recognize the threat posed by communism and to stand united against it.

The fear of communism in the 1940s was significantly fueled by events such as the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, which established a communist government and inspired leftist movements worldwide. The establishment of the Soviet Union as a superpower and its expansionist policies in Eastern Europe heightened anxieties in the West. Additionally, the formation of the Cominform in 1947, which aimed to coordinate communist parties globally, intensified fears of communist influence and espionage, particularly in the context of the emerging Cold War. The growing perception of a global communist threat led to policies like the Truman Doctrine, aimed at containing communism.
