The Atlantic Charter is one of the main policy documents of the World War II Allied coalition. It was discussed and adopted at the Atlantic Conference by British Prime Minister W. Churchill and US President F. D. Roosevelt at the Naval Base in Newfoundland, which was announced on August 14, 1941. Later, on September 24, 1941, the USSR and other countries joined the charter.
The Atlantic Charter was intended to determine the structure of the world after the victory of the Allies in World War II, despite the fact that the United States had not yet entered the war. It served as the basis for the creation of the United Nations, as well as the foundation for the future political and economic world order as a whole.
The Atlantic Charter was a joint declaration released by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill on August 14, 1941 following a meeting of the two heads of government in Newfoundland. The Atlantic Charter provided a broad statement of U.S. and British war aims.
