The correct answer is the following.

The United States and the Soviet Union had completely different goals after World War II and were part of the tense moments during the Cold War.

The United States foreign policy aimed in stopping the spread of Communism in many regions of the world, meanwhile the goal of the Soviet Union was the opposite, to spread Communism in other countries such as Bulgaria, Hungary, and Poland. The Soviet Union wanted socialism in Eastern Europe countries and influenced China, North Vietnam, and Cuba. The United States and Great Britain wanted Europe and the world free of Communism.
