Were the Methods the US used to contain the spread of Communism justified?

US's use of espionage to contain the spread of Communism is not justified. Instead of having official talks, the US resorted to spying, such as the U-2 incident in 1960, to gather information about the USSR to stop the spread of Soviet Communism. This method to contain Communism is unjustified.

US's political and economic isolation of China in 1950 to contain the spread of Communism is unjustified. The US saw China as wanting to spread Communism like the USSR, but China pursued its own interests and rejected Soviet control. This attempt to stop the spread of Communism is unjustified.
