EDITORIAL LEARNING AID

Why is this answer correct?

The "Iron Curtain" described the sealing off of the Soviet Union and its satellite states in the Warsaw Pact from the West. Northern and southern Germany were never sealed off from each other, and the term only emerged after 1945. It does not describe Europe against the USA.

Iron Curtain: the Warsaw Pact against the West.
