According to Secretary of State John Foster Dulles (Document 1), why was the "containment" policy of the Truman administration wrong for the times and circumstances? Group of answer choices Truman's "containment" policy was too blunt and aggressive an approach for building cooperative international relationships. Dulles believed there was no possible way to contain the spread of communism and that the United States should just accept that a large portion of the world prefers that economic system. Dulles believed that by 1954 communism no longer needed to be contained because it was no longer a threat to the United States and international stability. "Containment" always places the United States in the position of reacting to localized threats, as opposed to creating and controlling its international engagements and stances on its own terms and with authority.
