George Kennan American diplomat, &
expert on the Soviet Union Wrote that Soviet Union
was expansionist & at war with Capitalism & Democracy
Argued that Soviet Communism had to be resisted so that it could not expand (“containment”)

TRUMAN DOCTRINE
U.S. policy was to CONTAIN Soviet Communism where it currently was and NOT let it expand.
United States would send money or the military to countries that were threatened by the Soviets and would help support them to stay free and democratic.

Truman on the Truman Doctrine
“I believe that it must be the policy of the United States to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures.
I believe that we must assist free peoples to work out their own destinies in their own way.
I believe that our help should be primarily through economic and financial aid which is essential to economic stability and orderly political processes.”
