1. according to president harry truman, what is one problem when governments are controlled by the will of a minority? 2. according to president truman, what policy must the united states support?

According to Harry Truman, when a government is controlled by a minority, it is leaning on terror and oppression, resulting in a controlled press and radio, truncated elections and the suppression of personal liberties.

 Putting it in context: Referring to the events that occurred in Germany and Japan, as in other countries, with respect to totalitarian parties; and before the resignation of England to the trusteeship over Greece and Turkey, in 1947, Harry Truman, who was then president of the United States, considered that free and independent nations should be helped to maintain their freedom. Therefore, he considered that the governments of Greece and Turkey should be supported, intervening in the defense against the communist revolt, supporting the governments of those countries.

 It is in this sense that he affirmed that the policy that the United States should support was one that would help the peoples that fight against the armed minorities or against the external pressures that try to subjugated them. He affirmed that free peoples should be helped to fulfill their own destinies in the way they decide.

I hope this helps. Greetings.
