Answer 2

The correct answer is: "the Marshall Plan"

The Marshall Plan was an initiative launched by the US in 1948 to help the recovery of Western European countries after WWII. $ 12 billion were sent to rebuild those countries and to boost their economies by rebuilding factories, infrastructures, civil buildings, etc.

The US had adopted the containment strategy, a foreign affairs approach which focused on stopping the spread of communism worldwide.
