"New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or Parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress."
"The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States; and nothing in this Constitution shall be so construed as to Prejudice any Claims of the United States, or of any particular State."

The Truman Doctrine can be considered part of the US policy of containment. This idea of containment developed after World War II, as the United States and Soviet Union emerged as global superpowers. These two countries had extremely different ideas on what type of political/economic system should be used. The US was in favor of capitalism and democracy while the Soviet Union favored a communist system. This communist system resulted in government control of the economy and resulted in the severe limitation of citizens rights in the Soviet Union.
The US wanted to contain the spread of communism due to their disapproval of the Soviet Union. One way they did this was through the Truman Doctrine. President Harry Truman described how failing to help countries that are in jeopardy of falling to communism would threaten individual freedoms/liberties on a global scale. To help in this process, Truman and the US Congress dedicated $400 million to Turkey and Greece as a way to stop the spread of communism to these countries. This money, made possible by the Truman Doctrine, would allow for economies of Turkey and Greece to be stabilized and reduced their chances of falling to communism.
