If we consider the speech of Barack Obama, when he leaves the presidency of the United States of America, we will believe that there is reason to believe that democracy is threatened.

According to Obama, there are currently 3 threats to democracy, the first of which are forces such as terrorism, increased inequality and demographic changes that threaten the country's security, solidarity and prosperity, but these same forces also threaten democracy . if opportunities are not created for all people in the country, division and dissatisfaction will only become clearer in the coming years, threatening democracy.

Obama also highlighted a second threat, which is the racial issue.  "So if we're going to be serious about the racial issue, then we need to maintain anti-discrimination laws - in hiring, housing, education, and the criminal justice system."  Said the former president who pointed out  that only laws will not suffice to resolve the racial issue. "Hearts must change. It will not be a change overnight." Social attitudes sometimes take generations to change".

Obama also mentioned a third threat to democracy, which is when a group of similar people joins a bubble, be it a community, a church, a social network or a college, and that group brings together similar people with the same political vision. One person never questions the other's hypotheses.

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

D: Britain's resistance of Germany's Air Force suspended Germany's land invasion of the nation

Explanation:

We can say that the Battle of Britain was Hitler's first retreat and, why not, his first defeat. Germany began the attacks in 1940. When it comes to the army commanded by Hitler, Great Britain managed to maintain air superiority, not in number, but in the speed of action in the confrontation of 1940. With the support given by Winston Churchill and his moral speech, Great Britain didn't surrender, which led Germany to retreat and Hitler to cancel his attempt to invade Great Britain. After that, he turns his eyes to the Soviet Union.

One of these took place because of Greece and Turkey's attempts to resist the spread of Communism?
Kazeer [188]

The attempt to stop communism from spreading to Greece and Turkey after World War II was due to the Truman Doctrine.

The Truman Doctrine was a law proposed by US President Harry Truman. His goal was to stop the spread of communism (also known as containment). To ensure that Greece and Turkey (which are close to the Soviet Union) did not fall under the control of a communist nation, the US agreed to give $400 million to these countries. The goal was to help these countries recover from World War II as well as develop a political and economic alliance.
