Why did secretary of state marshall suggest this plan for european recovery?

The Marshall Plan (officially called the European Recovery Program) was an initiative of the United States, proposed by Secretary of State George C. Marshall, to help Western Europe, in which the Americans gave economic aid worth about 14 billion dollars. for the reconstruction of those countries of Europe devastated after the Second World War. The plan was in operation for four years since 1948. The objectives of the United States were to rebuild those areas destroyed by the war, eliminate barriers to trade, modernize European industry and make the continent prosperous again; all of these objectives were aimed at preventing the spread of communism, which had a large and growing influence in post-war Europe. The Marshall Plan required a decrease in inter-state barriers, less regulation of business and encouraged an increase in productivity, union membership and new "modern" business models.

the group i'm selecting: greeks.

a first group of greek immigrants came to the us in the 1850s. the second group came to america starting in the 1890s due to economic opportunities they didn't have back in their home caused by the hardships of ottoman rule. greek immigration was 90% male, many of them expected to work and return to greece after earning enough capital, but ultimately had to remain in the us after the greek genocide.
