Answer:

c .As a way to have further distance and a barrier of safety between the communist east and capitalist west in Europe.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stalin's main motive for the creation of Soviet satellite states in Eastern Europe was the need for security. When the war ended, the Soviet Union was the only Communist country in the world and Stalin believed that Western countries were bent on destroying it.
