Truman’s Foreign Policy Truman Doctrine: March 12, 1947 Truman tells Congress that America will defend and protect “free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures." Marshall Plan: June, 1947, Sec. of State, George C. Marshall announces plan to offer economic relief to European nations to help them rebuild ($5.3 billion).

Berlin Airlift Be Soviet Union blocked all electricity, water, transportation and food to West Berlin. S.U. hoped weaken West Berlin, and have it fall under Soviet control. To help West Berliners, the U.S. and Britain air dropped food, supplies, etc. In 327 days, U.S. made 277,000 flights, and brought 2.3 million tons of supplies. In May 1949, Stalin lifted the blockade.

North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) In response to the Berlin Crisis and Soviet aggression, the US and ten European nations create a defensive military alliance, NATO. “…an attack on one would be considered an attack on all.” For the first time in history, the U.S. joined a military alliance during peace time.

NSC #68 National Security Council Report 68, April 15, 1950, outlined America’s Cold War policy. Military build up and spending during peacetime to counteract Soviet threat. Offensive operations to weaken Soviet control of satellite countries. U.S. positions itself as leader of the free world and protects people and countries that are democratic and desire freedom.

Korean War [ ] Syngman Rhee Kim Il-Sung Domino Theory: “ containment” notion that if one country fell under communist influence or control, its neighboring countries would soon follow.

Korean History Japan ruled Korea from After WWII, Korea was divided in half at the 38 th parallel. The Russians controlled North Korea. The Americans controlled Korea below the 38 th Parallel (South Korea).

Korean War, On June 25, 1950, communist North Korea invaded South Korea. On June 27, the United Nations approved a 520,000 army to help South Korea. General Douglas MacArthur was placed in control of the UN troops. At first North Korea, was strong, driving American and South Korean troops to the southern tip of Korea.

Korean War, pt. 2 Sept. 1950: MacArthur invades through Inchon, divides the North Korean army, and pushes them back from the 38 th P. Oct. 1950: United Nations urges MacArthur to head north and reunite the Koreas. Nov. 25, 1950: MacArthur reaches the Yalu River near China. The Chinese push MacArthur back to the 38 th P. July 1951: Stalemate, Koreas divided in North (Com.) & South 38 th P.

By January 1957, the new Soviet-installed government had suppressed all public opposition.

Berlin Crisis, 1958 In November 1958, Khrushchev issued an ultimatum giving the Western powers six months to withdraw from Berlin and make it a free, demilitarized city. The U.S., Great Britain, & France replied to this ultimatum by asserting their determination to remain in West Berlin. By 1961, Soviet Union had erected the Berlin Wall to prevent East Germans from escaping to West Germany.

Kruschev-Nixon Kitchen Debate, 1959 On July 24, 1959, the monumental struggle between the U.S. and the USSR in the Cold War came down to a make- believe kitchen.
