The US policy of containment of Soviet expansion was advocated by:
AGeorge F. Kennan
BNone of these
CGeorge C. Marshall
DCordell Hull
Correct answer
A. George F. Kennan
Explanation
Explanation: George F. Kennan, a U.S. diplomat, is best known for advocating the policy of containment against Soviet expansion during the Cold War. He outlined this strategy in his “Long Telegram” (1946) and the “X Article” (1947). George C. Marshall is known for the Marshall Plan, and Cordell Hull was U.S. Secretary of State during World War II, but neither is directly associated with containment. Thus, “None of these” is incorrect.
