Much of the Western European countries lay in ruins after the war. They all faced the economic problems with poverty and lack of food. By the time, the U.S. was the only countries that still had the ability of aiding the other countries. In June 1947, U.S. Secretary of State George Marshall proposed that the U.S. give aid to any European country that required it. This program was called the Marshall Plan, named by the name of the proposer. It provided food, machines, and other materials. The plan succeeded in Western Europe and in Yugoslavia. |
