Vishinsky doctrine fuels U S accusation of Soviet war aims
The United States labeled Moscow doctrine that war against non Communists is virtuous as the Vishinsky principle.

European unity moves forward with Council of Europe
The Nation Today notes Western European nations forming a Council of Europe as a step toward unity though it lacks enforcement power. It recalls earlier proposals from France in 1930, Churchill’s 1940 offer, and postwar groups formed from 1947 onward, aided by a U.S. Senate resolution in March 1947.
