The founding of North Alantic Treaty Organization (NATO) helped weaker nations (for example, West Germany and Hungary) to form a collective security and standing army to prevent communist party from taking over. In the organization of NATO, U.S. took the role to provide money, troops, and leadership. What the United States did to try to contain the spread of communism was unjustified because they failed to accomplish their promises. When the Soviet leaders moved quickly eliminating thousands of hungarian protesters, many relied on America's bid to support, but America failed to rescue. They could not take the risk of going to war with the Soviet Union to help one of its satellites.

U.S.'s decision to support the Nationlist in China was a justified decision because it benefits America position for the Cold War. Also knowing Mao and Stalin have simillar policies, it is necessary to not support China's communist party. Cutting off trades with China help gained more trust between citizens in United State and its own government.
