Revision as of 02:53, 17 May 2023 by Comrade Penguin (talk | contribs) (mentioning the use of the truman doctrine in greece and turkey, and correcting the assertion that the Truman Doctrine "defended" capitalist markets from socialism, as if socialism being established in these countries would have been bad.)

The Truman Doctrine is an imperialist foreign policy position of the United States created by President Harry S. Truman. It allows unlimited interventionism to maintain the dictatorship of capitalist markets from socialism.[1] This doctrine was used to stop communists from achieving socialism in Greece and Türkiye after the Second World War.
