Not sure what you're aiming at. The russians build the wall to prevent people escaping to the west, but I fail to see what that has to do with the freedom of europeans in general. Most of the eastern european countries were under sovjet control. I don't see how the US made an end to it. The fall of the sovjet empire came largely from within. I don't see a particular significant US role in this whole process.
