The correct answer is "preventing the spread of communism worldwide."

Containment was the foreign policy of the US government immediately after World War II. Since the US and Soviet Union emerged as global superpowers, their influence would be seen in countries all over the world. The US, who disagreed with the communist regime of the Soviet Union, wanted to ensure that this system did not spread all over Europe. This is why the United States ends up passing laws like the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan. These laws give hundreds of millions of dollars in financial assistance to countries affected by World War II. The US hoped that this financial assistance would prevent a communist style of government from taking over. Along with this, the US helps to create the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. This group consists of countries who are allied with the US and are against the spread of the Soviet Union/communism.
