Understanding the Marshal Plan

Therefore, when notifying the US State Department that the UK could not provide assistance to Greece and Turkey, the United States did not hesitate to take action. That is because of the fear that communism in Europe will lead to the collapse of the world economy. The Truman regime is concerned whether Greece and Turkey will join the Communist Party, which in turn will cause dominoes and trends in other states like France and Italy (Herring, 2008, 615). Truman got the opportunity to attack.

Similarly, concerns of the US government are reflected in the Soviet Union. Stalin understands that the Marshall Plan is a "blatant American device" that can dominate Eastern Europe, not worse, westward, and worse. Regarding the North Korean problem, Anotaly Dobrynin argues that by the 1950s, Stalin considered "the plan and action of the United States as a preparation for a comprehensive war of unintended attacks against the Soviet Union". Rollback policy rarely alleviates this fear and we even thought that the pursuit of General MacArthur was proved to be a difference in unhappy opinion with Truman's government policy.

After the defeat of Germany, the United States tried to economically assist the Western European Union through Marshall Plan. The United States has extended the Marshall Plan to the Soviet Union, but under such circumstances the Americans knew that the Soviet Union never accepts free elections never again. As the impact on Eastern Europe is increasing, the Soviet Union tried to solve this problem in Comecon in 1949. More than that was not a clear reconstruction plan but an economic cooperation agreement. America and its Western European countries are trying to strengthen the relationship and kill the Soviet Union. They achieved this goal by forming NATO as a military agreement. The Soviet Union is opposed to the Warsaw Treaty, which has similar results to the Eastern Group.

In spite of a large grant, economic assistance from the Soviet Union may not be able to compare efficiency with the US Marshall plan. "Marshall's plan" was also submitted to the Soviet Union, but since the development of democracy, the development of private enterprises and the compliance with human rights were incompatible with Stalin's totalitarian concept, the Stalinist government should not refuse it did not become. The failure of the Soviet Union to accept Marshall's plan is one of the facts of tension between socialism and capitalism, and shocking evidence is a weapon's competition and mutual threat.
