The U.S. is often blamed for the Cold War due to its aggressive stance against the spread of communism, exemplified by the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan, which aimed to contain Soviet influence in Europe. Additionally, the U.S. engaged in military interventions and formed alliances, such as NATO, that heightened tensions with the Soviet Union. The ideological clash between capitalism and communism further fueled distrust and competition, leading to an arms race and proxy wars. Critics argue that these actions contributed significantly to the escalation of hostilities that defined the Cold War era.

The question of whether the US is to blame for the Cold War is complex and debated among historians. While the US's policies, such as containment and military alliances like NATO, contributed to escalating tensions with the Soviet Union, the USSR's aggressive expansionism and ideology also played significant roles. Both superpowers acted in ways that fueled distrust and competition, making it difficult to assign blame solely to one side. Ultimately, the Cold War resulted from a mix of ideological, political, and economic factors from both the US and the Soviet Union.
