6 0

As a result of World War II, Korea was liberated from Japan and divided in two: Communist North Korea (supported by the Soviet Union), and South Korea (supported by the US).

In 1950, Kim II Sung, the leader of North Korea, invaded South Korea in order to unify both countries under his command. In response to this invasion, President Truman ordered the US forces to aid its ally and reject North Korea advances.

Even when the conflict resulted on military stalemate, the United States proved the ideals of the Truman Doctrine by controlling communist invasion in the context of Cold War.

What point is Roosevelt trying to make in this speech?
Luba_88 [7]

The correct answer is B.

<u>This is part of a radio speech delivered by President Roosevelt in December 1940</u> (this was the second year in WWII, and the US was still neutral in the conflict).

He aimed to convince the audience about the necessity of ensuring a safe defense strategy for Great Britain, so that they were able to avoid the German invasion and resist the many attacks they were suffering.

Apart from the ideological fight against nazism, Roosevelt highlighted how if GB fell, the last territory in the Atlantic, before reaching the US, would have been conquered. That would pose a direct threat on the US. <u>Therefore, he supported the idea that GB should remain free at any cost. </u>
