What were the purposes of plans such as the Marshall Plan and the Berlin Airlift?
The purpose of the Marshall Plan—as the program came to be called—was not only to support economic recovery in Western Europe, but also to create a bulwark against Communism by drawing participating states into the United States' economic orbit.
