To prevent the spread of communism. Since the Russians would test the US by a cautious expansion and not start a major war, following WW II, Truman developed the Truman Doctrine, with the aid of George Kennan. This Doctrine provided military and financial aid to all the nations that agreed to resist any attempt by Russia to take them over. It was first applied in Greece and Turkey.
