"The Sources of Soviet Conduct"

The article was posted in the journal called Foreign Affairs by George Kennan. He talks about the U.S. policy of containing the Soviets. He also says that this act of containment is not a threatening action towards the Soviets, but just an act needed to be taken by the U.S. Kennan feels that the Soviets and U.S. will not be on the same page and neither accepts the polices that the other has. Kennan states that the Soviets are that of lessser strength but still feels this policy of containment will last a long time.
