Question

At the present moment in world history nearly every nation must choose between alternative ways of life. The choice is too often not a free one. One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and religion, and freedom from political oppression. The second way of life is based upon the will of a minority forcibly imposed upon the majority. It relies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio, fixed elections, and the suppression of personal freedoms. I believe that it must be the policy of the United States to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures. I believe that we must assist free peoples to work out their own destinies in their own way. The ideas expressed in this passage are good example of what U.S. policy

The ideas expressed in this passage are a good example of what U.S. policy?

Answer:

the policy of Containment.

The above-attached excerpt is part of the Truman Doctrine of 1947, and clearly reflects the policy of Containments established by the United States in the time of the Cold War. This policy of Containment was the US's answer to the Soviet Union's policy of spreading Communism in many parts of the world.

Let's remember that after World War II, the Soviet Union installed Communism in many countries of Europe as was the case of Rumania. Albania, Poland, East Germany Czechoslovakia, and Hungary.

During the so-called Cold War years, the USSR and the United States competed in the arms race, the space race, and the spread/containment of Communism, creating many tense moments.
