No, the correct answer is C, containment.
Containment was the foreign policy strategy used by the United States to prevent the spread of communism during the Cold War era. It aimed to "contain" and limit the influence of the Soviet Union and communist ideology.
To maintain the independence of Greece and Turkey after World War II, the United States implemented the Truman Doctrine in 1947. Under this doctrine, the U.S. committed to providing economic and military aid to countries threatened by communism. Both Greece and Turkey received substantial financial assistance to resist the communist insurgency and maintain their independence. This was a key component of the broader containment policy, aimed at preventing the spread of communism in Europe and the Middle East.
