Solution

The correct answer is B. Both the United States and the Soviet Union provided economic support to other states in an effort to influence their governments. This was a part of their larger geopolitical strategy during the Cold War period following World War II. The US did this through programs like the Marshall Plan, while the Soviet Union did this through the Comecon (Council for Mutual Economic Assistance).
