Explanation:
Marshall plan was also knows as European Recovery Program. It was the plan offered by USA to rebuild the economy of the allied countries after the World War Two.
One of the main reasons why it was offered was to prevent the countries from falling prey to communism. It was enacted in 1948 and gave more that 15 billion dollars to the allies. President Harry Truman signed it on April 3, 1948 and it helped 16 Europeans countries including Netherlands, Belgium,France and Britain.
After the second world war US had no intention too sent its troops into Eastern Europe where Soviet Union was supporting guerrilla movements and occupying countries. So It pursued the policy of granting aid too various countries so as to prevent a communist takeover and confine the communism to its current borders. This policy came to be known as Truman doctrine.
And with the Marshall plan it advanced the Truman doctrine by announcing the the humanitarian aid was the sole purpose of the Marshall plan. It also offered aid to the the communist countries of East Europe.
I would say that these terms illustrate that directions and words like "middle" are relative. For the Europeans China was far east from their point of view, but for China it was in the middle of what was relevant for them. It also shows that each place considers its own place as the center of their world: every other place will be seen through its relation with it.
