In the 1950s and 1960s, the USSR controlled Eastern European nations via a number of methods, including

Answer

establishing puppet governments and using force to crush any dissent or opposition to communist rule.

establishing a blockade along the Iron Curtain and preventing anyone from entering or leaving those countries.

preventing those countries from joining the United Nations and creating a policy of containment.

encouraging opponents to leave those countries and establishing refugee organizations in Western Europe.

Explanation

The USSR maintained control over Eastern European countries by installing communist governments that followed Soviet direction. When people challenged communist rule, Soviet forces or local security forces could suppress the opposition, as happened during uprisings in East Germany and Hungary. This matches choice A. The Iron Curtain was not a complete blockade preventing all travel, and containment was a Western policy aimed at limiting the spread of communism.
