The US Policy of 1947, primarily articulated through the Truman Doctrine, aimed to contain the spread of communism during the Cold War. President Harry S. Truman declared that the U.S. would support free peoples resisting subjugation by armed minorities or outside pressures, particularly in Greece and Turkey, which faced communist threats. This doctrine marked a significant shift in American foreign policy, committing the U.S. to intervene globally to counter communist expansion. It laid the groundwork for future U.S. involvement in various conflicts around the world.
