What does containment policy mean?
President Truman believed the US needed more than a "get tough on the Russians" policy following the war. Russia's history was one of expansion as much as possible and the Soviet Union was following that same idea. Because of the desire of the Soviets to expand westward, and the fact that Stalin had a pathological mistrust of the US, it would be impossible to come to a peaceful settlement with the Soviets. Thus, the policy of containment, developed by George F. Kennan of the State Department, was adopted by the Truman administration. The policy would allow communism where it already existed, but would use all force necessary to prevent any further expansion. In other words, communism would be "contained" where it presently existed. A foreign policy that attempted to prevent the spread of communism

Did the us policy of containment work during the cold war?
Yes, given the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. never had between them a nuclear war. The Cuban Missile Crisis was the closest they ever came, during the interval of October 14, 1962 until November 20, 1962. The crisis arose over the placement by the U.S.S.R. of nuclear missiles and other assets in Cuba, which is located a mere ninety miles from Miami, Florida. From there, these missiles could have reached anywhere in the continental United States and southern Canada (except perhaps Alaska).U.S. policy has been credited with being proximately causative of the dissolution of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, which occurred between January 19, 1990 and December 31, 1991.
