Answer (3)

The correct answer is B. The appeal of freedom of the containment of communism. Both space programs were successful, just like their nuclear programs. One could even say that the Soviet space program was more successful considering they were both the first in space, and the first to have a space walk, while the US only landed on the moon first.

Truman believed political change in the Soviet Union would come from the appeal of freedom and the strategy of containment against communism. He thought that once people recognized the benefits of democracy over communism, they would seek change. Truman's policies aimed to promote democratic values and resist the expansion of communism.
