As coined in a speech March 5th 1946, by Winston Churchill the term for a symbolic boundary dividing Europe into communist & non communist spheres is "the iron curtain"
the iron center
It was nicknamed the Iron Curtain, but it was notimaginary. It consisted of minfields, barbed wire and watchtowers - plus the Berlin Wall.
Three nations divided into communist and non-communist were Germany, Korea and Vietnam(until it became completely communist)
Satellite nations were like ALLIES to the communist Superpowers.
Communist nations between the iron curtain and the soviet union were found in Albania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Poland
It was disestablished in 1991, but when it was existent, its members included: Albania, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and the Soviet Union. The Warsaw Pact was a military alliance of communist nations in eastern Europe organized in 1955 in answer to NATO.

still rejecting calls for reform
This is correct. However the Cold War and World War 2 are long over and the Eastern Bloc Nations are no longer under Communist Rule of the Soviet Union.
There can be no such thing as a Communist government, as Communism does away with governments, classes and money. The societies in eastern Europe were state capitalist.
The Soviet Union and the eastern European communist nations founded the Warsaw Pact in 1955. This was in response to the United States and 11 other European nations forming the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
Interfere in Eastern European nations to preserve communist rule
Generally speaking, the non-communist nations of Western Europe were doing well in comparison to nations where Stalin had established communist governments in much of Eastern Europe. The free market policies of the West were yielding better economic growth then the centrally planned economies of Eastern Europe. The US helped to jump start the economies of Western Europe through the Marshall Plan.
