The Marshall Plan, known officially following its enactment as the European Recovery Program (ERP), was the primary plan of the United States to promote the recovery of Europe and to advance American foreign and domestic economic policies after World War II. The initiative was named for United States Secretary of State George Marshall and was largely the creation of State Department officials, especially William L. Clayton and George F. Kennan. The reconstruction plan was developed at a meeting of the participating European States in July 1947. The Soviet Union and the states of Eastern Europe were invited, but Stalin saw the plan as a threat and did not allow the participation of any countries under Soviet control. The plan was in operation for four fiscal years beginning in July 1947. 4, record 1, English, - European%20Recovery%20Program

Le plan Marshall fut un des plans de reconstruction de l'Europe après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, connu officiellement après son élaboration comme Programme de rétablissement européen (European Recovery program ou ERP). Le plan Morgenthau qui prévoyait de faire payer les réparations par l'Allemagne fut écarté par l'administration Truman : on se souvenait des effets désastreux d'une telle politique après la Première Guerre mondiale (la question des réparations allemandes avait en partie permis l'ascension de Hitler). L'initiative fut baptisée, par les journalistes, du nom du secrétaire d'État américain, le général George Marshall, qui, lors d'un discours à l'université Harvard (5 juin 1947) exposa la volonté du gouvernement des États-Unis de contribuer au rétablissement de l'Europe. Le Président Harry Truman signe le plan Marshall le 3 avril 1948. 2, record 1, French, - Programme%20de%20rel%C3%A8vement%20europ%C3%A9en

El 20 de junio de 1947, el entonces secretario de Estado de EE.UU., en un discurso pronunciado en la Universidad de Harvard, propuso a todos los países europeos la posibilidad de recibir ayuda estadounidense, para salir de la situación de grave postración económica en que se encontraban desde el final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La aceptación por los países occidentales de Europa de tal oferta, puso en marcha el «Plan de Recuperación Económica Europea», más conocido como Plan Marshall, que entre 1948 y 1952 suministró a tales países - de entre los cuales solamente se excluyó a España - alrededor de 20.000 millones de dólares en materias primas, alimentos y equipo industrial. 1, record 1, Spanish, - Plan%20de%20Recuperaci%C3%B3n%20Econ%C3%B3mica%20Europea
