Right choice:

B. provided economic support primarily to communist states in

Eastern Europe.

Explanation:

The Marshall Plan was intended to offer aid and assistance for the recovery of all of Europe in principle, but the Soviet Union and other pro-Soviet regimes refused the American offer because of political fears and opening the door to American influence. So, the USSR came with a plan of recovery of its own, the Molotov Plan. The beneficiaries of the project were the socialist countries of Eastern Europe, Soviet allies.
