Answer:

The Doctrine mentioned that the United States could help with Hungary's situation as being part of the Soviet Bloc, so they seceded from the Warsaw Pact. This caused the Soviets to invade Hungary, and the United States refused to help because it could have erupted into nuclear war with the Soviet Union (Cold War).
