What would the Cold War be like or have turned out like if post-WW2 US foreign policy wasn't vehemently for the decolonisation of European empires and specifically, the empires of its allies?
How would the world be different if the US didn't insist or realised (and I use that term loosely, I'm not implying anything) that it's better for a country to be under an allied and European sphere of influence and control, rather than Soviet sphere of influence or control?
Could the US have intervened in any European colonial wars? The most famous example we have of this in OTL, is Vietnam. What would happen in Suez? Algeria? Etc? How would this change the foreign policies of the respective European and allied nations?
Finally, how would the Soviet Union react to a pro-Empire US?
Enjoy!
