<P> The Molotov Plan was the system created by the Soviet Union in 1947 in order to provide aid to rebuild the countries in Eastern Europe that were politically and economically aligned to the Soviet Union . It can be seen to be the Soviet Union 's version of the Marshall Plan , which for political reasons the Eastern European countries would not be able to join without leaving the Soviet sphere of influence . Soviet foreign minister Vyacheslav Molotov rejected the Marshall Plan ( 1947 ) , proposing instead the Molotov Plan -- the Soviet - sponsored economic grouping which was eventually expanded to become the Comecon . </P>
