The correct answer is “to stop the spread of Communism.”

Greece and Turkey were the first countries to receive aid under the Marshall plan, partially to rebuild the countries but also to stop the spread of Communism.

One of the main concerns of the United States after World War II was the spread of Communism in Europe and other parts of the world. The Soviet Union was also a superpower in those years and had the opposite goal. The USSR wanted to spread Communism not only in Europe but in other regions. Russia ended up controlling Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, and Romania in Eastern Europe. Communism also will end up reaching China, Cuba and Vietnam. That is why the United States was worried. So it is true that Greece and Turkey were the first countries to receive aid under the Marshall plan, partially to rebuild the countries but also to stop the spread of Communism.
