How did the western allies respond to soviet expansion in the cold war?

How did the Soviet Expansion in Eastern Europe result in the cold war?
Soviet expansion in Europe (as a result of Stalin's need to create a buffer zone for the USSR to protect itself from future invasion - they had suffered heavy casualities in WWII, whilst the US had flourished economically) was seen by the US as Stalin trying to spread communism, which to an extent was true. The capitalist US was afraid of communism, which eventually led to the Red Scare. As a result of soviet expansionism, the US decided to set up 'marshall Aid,' which set up funds for the countries of eastern Europe at threat of falling to communism, much to Stalin's dismay. Also, Stalin's expansionism was a problem as he was trying to take Poland and Germany, Poland, the country that England had entered WWII for in the first place. The real problem came to a head when Stalin infringed on the "declaration on liberation Europe" which stated that eatern europeans countries had the freedom to choose the type of government under which they lived. basically, Soviet expansionism really did stem the whole cold war - it brought to the forefront the US's fear of communism and total hostility - the proxy war began over Marshall Aid, and the Berlin Airlift in 1948, which were as a result of soviet expansionism.
