Abstract

With the beginning of the Cold War, Washington’s foreign policy is built upon concept of “containment” of the Soviet Communist threat. Th e transition fr om George Kennan’s concept to NSC68 and the war in Korea led to the extension of US security interests at the periphery of the Soviet world. Th e need for strong conventional means under the “new circumstances” in the world requires rapprochement between Greece and Yugoslavia. Th ese two countries (together with Italy and Turkey) had to be part of the “western chain”, that had to deal with every attempt of local aggression in the area of the Eastern Mediterranean.
