I believe the answer is: Britain's inability to assist governments in Greece and Turkey

According to Truman doctrine, United States shall provide economic and military assistance to other countries to battle soviet union influence during the cold war.

This doctrine was created because Truman Argued that if Turkey and Greece was not given military assistance, they would most likely fall to soviet union's ideology.
