The provision of military support to countries fighting communism.
Both doctrines aimed to contain communism and offered economic aid, but the Eisenhower Doctrine went further by explicitly authorizing the United States to use military force (on request) to defend Middle Eastern countries—whereas the Truman Doctrine primarily focused on economic and political aid (and indirect military assistance) to resist communist takeover.
