One example of how the United States countered Soviet influence in Asia and Africa was through the implementation of the containment policy, which aimed to prevent the spread of communism to these regions. This policy included providing military and economic aid to countries threatened by communist expansion, as well as forming alliances and treaties with like-minded nations. Additionally, the United States engaged in covert operations and propaganda campaigns to promote anti-communist sentiments and support pro-Western governments in Asia and Africa.
