Meeting of Allied leaders deciding how Europe would be reorganized after WWII?

• A. Yalta Conference
• B. Bretton Woods Conference
• C. Cuban Missile Crisis
• D. War in Afghanistan

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is identifying which postwar meeting shaped Europe’s political order after World War II. The meeting at Yalta brought together Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin in 1945 to decide how Europe would be reorganized. They discussed dividing Germany into occupation zones, setting up the framework for postwar reconstruction, and establishing the United Nations, along with how Eastern Europe, including Poland, would be influenced in the new order. This is the event that directly addresses Europe’s postwar political structure.

The other options don’t fit this focus: Bretton Woods dealt with rebuilding the global economy and creating financial institutions like the IMF and World Bank; the Cuban Missile Crisis was a Cold War confrontation over missiles in Cuba in 1962; the War in Afghanistan refers to conflicts much later and not about post-WWII European reorganization.
