A. US President Harry Truman

Explanation:

General MacArthur, angered over Chinese involvement in North Korea, wanted the United States to bomb China. US president Harry Truman disagreed. He was concerned that bombing China would lead to war with China’s ally, the Soviet Union, and potentially to the use of nuclear weapons. Because Truman disagreed with MacArthur’s foreign policy, he fired the popular general.

The correct answer to this question would be alternative A)"Harry Truman."
