Marshall Plan Placed Europe on Path Toward Unity

Washington -- The Marshall Plan, announced 60 years ago, set Europe on a path of cooperation that ultimately led to the formation of NATO and the European Union.

Before the United States would donate financial aid, “there must be some agreement among the countries of Europe” about how to spend the money, Secretary of State George C. Marshall said in his historic June 5, 1947, address. He purposely left the details vague, waiting to see what would happen next.

In London, British Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin listened to the Marshall speech on the BBC and immediately acted. He contacted France’s like-minded foreign minister, Georges Bidault, to discuss how they could organize and lead a European economic conference. “I said to myself at once … ‘It is up to us to tell them what we want,'” Bevin later told the House of Commons. “‘It is up to us to produce a plan.'”

Marshall’s offer for assistance did not take place in a political vacuum. Nine months earlier, in September 1946, Marshall’s predecessor, Secretary of State James Byrnes, delivered the “Speech of Hope” in Stuttgart, Germany. Byrnes promised that the United States would help rebuild a defeated Germany and reintegrate it into the European economy. He also promised a long-term U.S. troop commitment in response to a large Soviet presence in the Soviet occupation zone.

Less than two weeks later, on September 19, 1946, in Zurich, Switzerland, British statesman Winston Churchill spoke of “the re-creation of the European family” in a politically united Europe.

Of course then you had someone like Charles de Gaulle who was fine with the idea of European integration, but saw it as an alternative to American power. Then the CIA sponsored a failed coup against him. The European Union project of the Imperial American Deep State has backfired and now they are trying their best to suppress it. Of course, American globalists gleefully support the EU.
