Best Answer

Josef Goebbels was the first person to speak of the Iron Curtain. He explained this in his article named The Year 2000 in 1945 saying: "If the German people surrender, the Soviets will occupy . . . the whole east and southeast of Europe in addition to the larger part of the Reich. In front of this enormous territory, including the Soviet Union, an iron curtain will go down . . . The rest of Europe will fall in political chaos which will be but a period of preparation for the coming of Bolshevism.
