Answer:

D) Containment was successful

Step-by-step explanation:

The U.S. was not able to eliminate the Communist forces in North Korea. However, the official purpose of the war was to contain the Communists there and prevent the entire Korean peninsula from becoming Communist. Since this was the outcome, Containment was successful is the correct answer.

Although none of these are technically exactly very true, the best answer is that "containment was successful". this is because the war ended in a military stalemate.
