Stalin wanted communist governments installed in these countries as a protection against Germany. The U.S. and Britain were against the idea and wanted free elections in Eastern Europe. New Conflicts Develop President Truman outlined a policy of resisting Soviet expansion around the world, which was called the Truman Doctrine. To help keep communism from taking hold in Western Europe, the U.S. sent billions of dollars in aid under the Marshall Plan. The Allies moved to strengthen the West German economy, while the Soviets dismantled much of East Germany’s industry. Tensions grew over the split within Germany, and distrust fueled the establishment of two alliances: NATO and the Warsaw Pact.
