3 The decision had a curious aftermath. It appears that when the judgment was rendered, the Economic Cooperation Administration threatened cessation of Marshall Plan aid to Belgium. As a result, the Belgian Government agreed to seek a friendly arrangement between the Belgian plaintiff and the Greek Government so that the Greek funds from Marshall Plan sources would go solely for new equipment for Greek railways.
