The two major goals of President Harry S. Truman's presidency were to contain the spread of communism and to rebuild the post-World War II economy. He implemented the Truman Doctrine to provide military and economic support to countries resisting communism, particularly in Europe and Asia. Additionally, the Marshall Plan was enacted to aid European recovery, promoting stability and preventing the rise of communist influence. These initiatives aimed to establish the United States as a global leader in promoting democracy and capitalism.
