The Marshall Plan, officially known as the European Recovery Program, was initiated by the United States in 1948 to aid Western European countries in rebuilding their economies after World War II. While it primarily aimed to assist European recovery, it also had significant benefits for the U.S., as it helped to stabilize these nations, preventing the spread of communism and fostering strong economic ties. The plan resulted in increased trade between the U.S. and Europe, contributing to post-war economic growth in the United States. Overall, it solidified American influence in Europe and laid the groundwork for future international cooperation.
