United States foreign policy after World War II focused primarily on preventing the spread of Stalinism and Soviet communism throughout Europe and the rest of the world. Truman's anticommunist attitudes led to increasing actions aimed at alienating Stalin and the Soviet Union after V-J Day. This was illustrated by a number of economic and military conflicts between East and West Germany directly after the war (look up the Berlin Airlift), and later in conflicts such as the Korean War. Central to early Cold War policy was the concept of "containment," a number of foreign-policy strategic initiatives that sought to contain communism within the parts of the world in which it was already present.

He also established the two-term limit for presidents, voluntarily stepping down after his second term, which was later codified in the 22nd Amendment. Additionally, Washington's decision to remain neutral in foreign conflicts set a precedent for American foreign policy, emphasizing diplomacy over entanglement in wars.
