Answer 1

You didn't describe the foreign policy positions, but here are some:

United States has the foreign policy position that it will not negotiate with North Korea in one on one talks.

Action: Insisted on regional talks with China and Japan.

United States has the foreign policy position that Iran needs to stop nuclear efforts.

Action: Prohibits U.S. companies from dealing with Iran financially.

Position: U.S. needs to help countries in disaster.

Action: Send military/medicine/food/assistance to Indonesia after the tsunami.

Post the positions and we can help with the actions.

Answer 2

First, let's understand the question. Break it down into its parts:

Identify an action the US took

to support each foreign policy position

The second half of the statement needs to be tackled first. What are some foreign policy positions the US has taken? Here's some suggestions:

The Monroe Doctrine http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monroe_Doctrine

The Lend-Lease Program http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lend-Lease_program

The Domino Theory

Read each article. The articles will explain the foreign policy position taken, AND give you the actions the US took to support the foreign policy position.
