Yalta Conference (Feb. 1945) Churchill and FDR gave Eastern Europe to Stalin to oversee reconstruction of countries Stalin promised to hold free elections In return for control of E. Europe, Stalin promised to help U.S. in Japan. WWII ends in August 1945

Containment Containment Policy (1946) Attempt to block the Soviet Communist influence from spreading U.S. built an economic/military/political fence Churchill’s “Iron Curtain” speech

Marshall Plan Marshall Plan (1947) U.S. supplied economic aid to European nations to help them rebuild after WWII $12.5 Billion To stop the spread of communism Soviet Union and its satellite nations denied assistance

Truman Doctrine Truman Doctrine (1947) Provided economic and military aid to free nations threatened by internal or external opponents
