After World War II, the U.S. perceived the Soviet Union as a threat due to its expansionist policies in Eastern Europe and the spread of communism, which contradicted Western democratic values and capitalism. The establishment of communist regimes in countries like Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary fueled fears of a Soviet agenda to dominate Europe.
