The U.S. strategy of containment was first articulated in the "Long Telegram" sent by George Kennan, a U.S. diplomat stationed in Moscow, to the U.S. State Department in 1946. Kennan argued that the Soviet Union would not respond to traditional diplomacy or incentives, but could be effectively contained through a policy of political and economic pressure. This strategy became a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy during the Cold War.
