It would resitrct communism to countries that were communist before World War II In 1947, the President of the United States of America, Harry Truman delivered a speech and he announced that he was willing to help any country under threat from Communism. He gave out billions of dollars to European countries with permission from Congress. The money was to help the countries recover and to prevent Communism from spreading across Europe. (Estimated $13 billion dollars was given out to 16 European countries)
One way that the Truman Doctrine was used to stop the spread of communism is by his policy called containment. This was a way to pour money and supplies into war-torn countries, keep them afloat and stop the spread of communism. Another example is the Marshal Plan that also gave money to European countries in return for support.
The Marshall Plan provided aid to various European countries after World War II. Its purpose was to help rebuild European countries, in order to keep them from turning to Communism as a way to rebuild.
The Marshall Plan was put into effect by the US to rebuild European countries after World War 2.
