Abstract
The article based on American and Polish documents and is devoted to the United States policy towards Poland in 1945-1949 and the views of the American leadership on the beginning process of Sovietization of this country. The author considers the ideas of the members of the administration of F.D. Roosevelt and H.S. Truman regarding the solution of issues of state borders, the form of government and the composition of the government of Poland. The conclusions about Washington's initial consent to the inclusion of Poland in the sphere of influence of the USSR are substantiated. It is shown that for some time in the United States it was considered possible to change the political course of the Polish leadership with the help of political and economic levers of influence. The research noted the significant role of the Polish diaspora in the United States in constructing a negative image of Soviet politics in Poland.
