The correct answer is A. In the years right after WWII, the Marshall Plan was designed to give billions of dollars to war-ravaged countries of Europe.

Explanation:

The Marshall Plan was the official American plan to rebuild post-war Europe and counter the impact of post-World War II communism. The task of developing the plan was given to George Marshall and his Department of State colleagues.

The Marshall Plan offered such assistance to the Soviet Union and its allies, but only if they made political reforms and accepted some form of external control. The plan was implemented for 4 years beginning in July 1947. During this period, some $ 13 billion in economic and technical assistance was sent to European countries that became OECD members.

By the time the plan reached its completion point, the economy of each participating country, except Germany, had grown relative to the pre-war period. Over the next 2 decades, almost all Western European countries experienced economic growth and improved living standards. The Marshall Plan has long been considered one of the first processes of European integration. One of its consequences is the considerable Americanization of the economy and technology in Europe and the ways of managing the economy.
