Why did the Truman believe the Greeks needed American Aid in 1947?

In 1947, President Harry S. Truman believed the Greeks needed American aid to prevent the spread of communism in Europe. Greece was facing a civil war fueled by communist insurgents, and Truman feared that if the U.S. did not intervene, it could lead to a domino effect, threatening other nations. He viewed American support as essential not only for Greece's stability but also for maintaining broader democratic values in the region.
