Answer & Solution
Option: B
Explanation :U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt first suggested using the name United Nations to refer to the Allies of World War II to British Prime Minister Winston Churchill during the latter’s three-week visit to the White House in December 1941. Roosevelt suggested the name as an alternative to “Associated Powers”, a term the U.S. used in the First World War. Churchill accepted the idea and cited Lord Byron’s use of the phrase “United Nations” in the poem Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage, which referred to the Allies at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.
