Explanation:

On March 12, 1947, President Truman gave a speech, broadcast over national radio, in which he asked Congress for $400 million in economic aid to Greece and Turkey. Otherwise, the Soviet Union would come to dominate Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. In 1947, Congress passed a Greek-Turkish aid bill that helped Turkey achieve economic stability and enabled Greece to defeat a communist insurrection in 1949.
