Question

Which of these was one of President Truman's concerns during the Korean War?

Answer 1

Truman was most concerned with the newly communistic country of China joining the war effort. The US and United Nations could handle North Korea and were able to push back forces out of South Korea. China entering meant more men, more money, and more arms. It also could eventually lead to an escalation of warring powers coming into the war. China did enter the war which led to an armistice and agreement to keep Korea split at the 38th parallel.
