Someone who believes in the domino theory might as well support the Truman Doctrine because they were both stemmed out of America's quest to crush communism and Soviet geopolitical influence around the world. In other words, they both had 'the fight against communism background' in common, and were both born during the cold war. The domino theory was a US political theory that states that the rise of communism in a country in a particular region will triggers a series of follow up communism in other nations around the region in a domino effect. This theory was used by the US to justify its military interventions around the world during the cold war. The Truman Doctrine was an American foreign policy during the cold war that was put in place to contain the geopolitical  expansion of the Soviet Union during the cold war.

The Marshall plan supported the Truman Doctrine by pledging support fund for war torn Europe after world war II. This was out of the belief that some European countries might return to communism after the war due to their devastated economy as it was demonstrated in china in 1949.

This proved to be very successful and also favored America's economy, as most of the funds were used to buy American goods.

Answer (27)

The Warsaw pact was used by the Soviet union to control the other nations involved and was also used to strengthen its communist government. It also  served to crush some uprising against communism as used to crush uprisings in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. On the other hand, NATO was voluntary and was formed to reduce communist influences around the globe.

Answer (28)

The Non-Aligned countries took a stance to remain independent of Soviet or American influences during the cold war.
