The given statement is True.

Step-by-step explanation:

Containment was a strategy which was taken after the world war II to prevent the expansion of communism. It was followed in United States during cold war. Therefore the another name of containment was foreign policy of cold war. Foreign policies were mainly taken to preserve nation's interest and its international relations with other countries.

Trueman wanted to limit the military involvement overseas. He wanted to ensure the interests of Greece and Turkey. Foreign policies preserve the democratic idealistic approach of a country.
