False.
The Marshall Plan (1948) was an economic aid program to rebuild Western Europe and help block communist influence — it was one important instrument of the broader U.S. containment strategy. But the Plan itself was a finite reconstruction program, not a formal, open‑ended commitment "until the end of the Cold War." Containment as a doctrine (Truman Doctrine, NSC‑68, NATO, etc.) was the long‑running U.S. policy that persisted through the Cold War.
