Given the world political situation in 1947, who do you think are the "armed minorities" and "outside pressures" who are trying
Mila [183]

Answer: Directly, The National Liberation Front, or the EAM/ELAS (A Communist Insurgency in Greece).

Indirectly, Communists in general.

Explanation:

The world in 1947 was a very different one from the world in 1945 for whereas in the former the West and ghe Soviet Union had been triumphant Allies who vanquished the Nazis in the Second World War, in the latter they were rivals, competing to impose their own view of Political theory on the world.

The British had been responsible for liberating Greece in the Second World War which is why it had not fallen into the hands of the Soviets and Turkey had maintained neutrality, only joining the War in the last months and never actually fighting so they didn't fall into the hands of the Soviets either.

Britain supplied Aid to both countries to keep them from falling into Soviet Communism but in 1947 could do no more because the British Economy had barely survived the war.

They informed the USA and after some negotiations with Congress, President Truman uttered the very popular, Truman Doctrine.

In his speech he said, "It must be the policy of the United States to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures."

The armed minority he was directly referring to were the National Liberation Front, or the EAM/ELAS which was waging an insurgency in Greece at the time but in general, he wanted the United States to take a stand against all communists groups that would attempt to take over nations by force and against the Soviet Union that would attempt to place pressure on countries to join their side.

Stolb23 [73]

Answer: World War I.

Explanation:

When we talk about collective opposition to war, we can take World War I as an example. The beginning of the conflict in Europe and the world met with collective opposition to the entry into the United States' war by the people and the government. President Woodward Wilson himself was opposed to the country entering the war. The people supported him with slogans that could be seen across America in those years and read "The One Who Saved Us from the War," alluding to the president. The United States joined the war only near the end of the conflict when its interests began to be threatened. Globally, the people and the government were against involving the country in the war.
