Answer:

Winston Churchill

Step-by-step explanation:

Iron curtain or iron curtain is a historical term that comes from the German expressions Eiserner Vorhang and EnglishIron Curtain. It makes reference to the political, ideological, and in some cases also physical, border between the Western Europe (Capitalist Block) and Eastern Europe (Communist Block), after the Second World War.

Winston Churchill used his English version in a speech. The former British Prime Minister used it to refer to the border, not only physical but also ideological, which divided Europe into two blocks after the Second World War. Churchill popularized the term at a conference in the United States in 1946.
