Greece and Turkey.
well actually it states somthing along the lines of this
At the present moment in world history nearly every nation must choose between alternative ways of life. The choice is too often not a free one. One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and religion, and freedom from political oppression. The second way of life is based upon the will of a minority forcibly imposed upon the majority. It relies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio, fixed elections, and the suppression of personal freedoms. 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 stability and orderly political process.
Under the Truman Doctrine, the United States provided financial aid and military assistance to Greece. The U.S. government allocated economic aid to Greece to support its economy and rebuild infrastructure, as well as to help combat the threat of communist insurgency. Additionally, the U.S. sent military advisors and equipment to assist in the defense of Greece against communist forces.
The countries involved in the Truman Doctrine were the United States, Greece, and Turkey. In a speech to a joint session of Congress on March 12, 1947, President Truman asked for U.S. assistance for Greece and Turkey to forestall communist domination of the two nations.
Ghhjj
The Truman Doctrine was an act of aggression because it stated that the United States would support Italy or Greece if the Soviet Union attacked either country. Essentially, it showed how willing Truman was to go to war with the U.S.S.R. by becoming allied with it's enemies.
According to the Truman Doctrine, the United States should have done something about the incident. Truman believed that it was the place of the United States to support people who are being subjugated.
The policy of the United States to provide aid to countries attempting to prevent a communist takeover was called the Truman Doctrine. Harry S. Truman was America's 33rd President.
The Truman Doctrine states the United States will provide military, political and economic assistance to all democratic nations under threat from authoritarian forces. Prior to the Truman Doctrine the United States' foreign policy had called for the withdrawal from regional conflicts not directly related to the US. This opened the way to possible intervention.
The United States turned away from its policy of isolationism
He declared that the United States would oppose the spread if communism.
The Truman Doctrine was meant to help any non-communist country to resist communist pressure by providing economic and military aid. It was announced by US President Truman during the Greek Civil War; the United States sent $400 million in economic aid to Greece to help the government defeat the communist forces attempting to overthrow them. It also was the basis for the support during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. This shifted the American policy towards communism from détente, or the easing of strained tensions, to containment. It also is often used to mark the beginning of the Cold War. The major recipients of the aid were Greece and Turkey, and later South Korea and Vietnam.
The Truman Doctrine was a governmental policy to stop the spread of communism in Europe and around the world with military and economic aid. The doctrine received bipartisan support and led to United States intervention in the Greek Civil War, Korea, and Vietnam.
The Truman Doctrine was a policy based on a speech given by President Harry F. Truman to a joint session of the US Congress. In his speech, Truman told Congress that "it must be the policy of the United States to support free people who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures." The focus was on preventing the spread of Communism, especially in the countries of Greece and Turkey, but it effectively changed US Foreign Policy.
