4h 21min, mar 12, 1947 y - Truman Doctrine

Description:

The Truman Doctrine was a foreign policy established by President Harry S. Truman. Truman created this doctrine because of America's fear of communism and it's expansion. The doctrine said that any country under the threat of a communist takeover would receive military support from the United States. This policy was first used during the Greek Civil War, because Truman thought without American aid they would become communist.
