supporting the governments already in place.

The USSR extended influence by backing local Communist parties, providing political, economic, and military aid, and turning nearby governments into Soviet-aligned regimes rather than directly appointing leaders or permanently stationing large Soviet forces in places like Yugoslavia (which broke with Moscow in 1948).
