Question

Select the correct text in the passage.
Which choice best explains why President Reagan decided to take a more aggressive approach against the Soviet Union?
In the 1980s, US foreign policy moved away from the détente approach of President Nixon. President Reagan believed that the Soviet Union had
manipulated détente to benefit themselves and limit the United States. He decided to radically increase defense spending in order to build up
the US military so that the country would be able to more actively contain the Soviet Union. Although supported by many, this increase in
spending angered some who felt that too many public services suffered from having their funds diverted.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The main goal of the US foreign policy during the presidency of Ronald Reagan (1981–1989) was winning the Cold War and the rollback of communism—which was achieved in the Revolutions of 1989 in Eastern Europe during 1989; in the German reunification in 1990; and in the Dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. Historians debate whom to credit, and how much. They agree that victory in the Cold War made the U.S. the world's only superpower, one with good relations with former Communist regimes in Russia and Eastern Europe.
