The Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls (CoCom) was established by the Western Bloc in the first five years[1] after the end of World War II, during the Cold War, to put an embargo on Comecon countries. CoCom ceased to function on March 31, 1994, and the then-current control list of embargoed goods was retained by the member nations until the successor, the Wassenaar Arrangement, was established in 1996.
