What US Cold war policy aimed at stopping the spread of communism?
Containment, devised under the Truman Administration and followed by Eisenhower and Kennedy, was the policy that committed the US from allowing communism to expand any places other than where it already existed at the end of World War II. It threatened the use of force, if necessary, to stop the spread of communism. It was first used in Greece and Turkey.
Reply:Policy of Containment under the threat of the domino theory in that if one nation falls then others may go in procession like falling dominoes
