Answer:

President Reagan's buildup of America's weapons contributed to the fall as communism by promoting military spending by the Soviet Union in times of financial crisis, which further increased its economic recession.

Explanation:

Reagan's foreign policy was marked by his attempt to contain Soviet influence in many regions. Carter had considered Soviet influence an inevitable process, but Reagan moved to a policy of greater confrontation against the Soviet Union. During the Reagan era the Cold War went through its final phase, and somehow the United States emerged from that period as the only unchallenged world superpower, against the Soviet bloc that eventually dissolved. The Reagan administration turned the arms race into a technological struggle, where the largest industrial, military and economic capacity of the United States was imposed on the Soviet bloc.
