to stop the spread of communism
C
to win public support for the Cold War
D
to strengthen the United States’ position in world politics

Explanation

Reagan argued that the invasion was needed to protect U.S. citizens in Grenada and prevent the island from becoming a communist foothold in the Caribbean. Of these choices, stopping the spread of communism best captures his stated justification. Escalating tensions with the Soviet Union was not the aim he publicly gave.
