The phrase 'Peace for our time' was spoken after which agreement?

• A. Yalta Conference
• B. Munich Agreement
• C. Treaty of Versailles
• D. Atlantic Charter

Answer: (B)

That phrase is tied to the policy of appeasement in the late 1930s. After negotiating with Hitler at Munich, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain announced that the agreement to allow Germany to seize the Sudetenland would bring “peace for our time.” He believed appeasing Hitler would avert another war, but the hope proved short-lived as Nazi aggression continued and World War II followed. The other events happened in different contexts: the Yalta Conference was in 1945 about planning the postwar world; the Treaty of Versailles was signed in 1919 to end World War I; the Atlantic Charter was a 1941 statement of Allied aims.
