I hope there was more information on the question but I'll try to answer according to how I understand it.
The answer is: to cast a blame on the USSR
Explanation:
I believe the question is related to the "Cold War." This war happened after Germany surrendered to the USA.
Before the war, the USA and the Soviet <em>(USSR)</em> were already allies against the "Axis Power"<em> (Japan, Germany and Ital</em>y<em>).</em> However, it was said that the Soviet already resented the USA especially at one point when it couldn't help the Russians earlier during the World War II. The USA, also has been very cautious about the Russian's "communism" even before the events. <u>So, both of these countries have already been wary of each other.</u>
The main purpose of the US reply was to cast the blame on the USSR. The reply was made in a<em> telegram</em> by George Kennan, a diplomat. It talked about the "containment strategy." This means that the USA could block the Soviet any time they feel like they're a risk to the nation. This even resulted to an advancement in the Cold War, such as the two countries empowering on<u> "atomic bombs."</u>
The correct answer is the Suez Canal in Egypt.
The others are in different continents: The Grand Canal in Europe (Venice), the Panama Canal in the Americas ( and splits the two Americas) and Erie Canal is in America (NY).
My guess is :
Edmond Charles Genêt<span> served as French minister to the United States from 1793 to 1794. His activities in that capacity embroiled the United States and France in a diplomatic crisis, as the United States Government attempted to remain neutral in the conflict between Great Britain and Revolutionary France. The controversy was ultimately resolved by Genêt’s recall from his position. As a result of the Citizen Genêt affair, the United States established a set of procedures governing neutrality.</span>
