Detente was a better policy than a continuation of nuclear proliferation and escalating the tensions of the Cold War.  Nixon sought to reduce tensions with the USSR by meeting with Soviet premier Leonid Brezhnev in 1972 -- the first US president to visit Moscow.  Nixon also visited China in 1972 to begin a process of normalizing relations with that communist country.

Reagan's proposal of the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) in 1983 tended to escalate tensions again between the United States and the Soviet Union.  Reagan's proposed idea of a space-based missile defense shield seemed to the Soviets to be a violation of agreements in Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) that had already been agreed upon.  According to the US Department of State archives, Reagan's commitment to SDI became a barrier to the US and USSR reaching agreement on arms limitations measures.  The Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) was completed after Reagan left office. 
Some have suggested that SDI applied sufficient pressure to the USSR to help bring the Cold War to an end, but that claim is hard to substantiate.

TAMPA, Fla., Jan. 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via OTC PR WIRE Umbra Applied Technologies, Inc. (OTC:UATG) Chairman is pleased to issue the following letter to shareholders today:

UATG Shareholders

Re: Umbra Applied Technologies Group, Inc.
2018 Chairman’s Letter
(UATG:PK) Year 2018

Chairman's Letter

“UAT Group and its subsidiaries, operate with the understanding that what we do matters and as such our decisions bear consequences.”

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

First, I would like to wish everyone a prosperous New Year and I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.

As the Chief Executive of a publicly traded company I am the fiduciary for all shareholders, many of whom have invested in UAT Group based on long-term goals such as retirement or to pay for a childs higher education. As such, I advocate and otherwise direct corporate governance practices that are in keeping with long-term value creation for our shareholders and clients. Last year I asked my executive team to help me outline a new strategic frame-work for long-term value creation that could be completed within the year. I am pleased to report that we have been successful in our execution and were so against significant odds.

Over the course of the past 12 months, many of the assumptions on which our plans were based, including low interest rates on capital and an expectation for continued globalization, have failed to sustain despite indicators to the contrary. With U.S. reflation, increasing rates, renewed growth, the increasing turbulence in Asia as a catalyst to geopolitical tensions, the prospective withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union reshaping Europe and the United States undergoing a fundamental reformation of long held fiscal strategies; the economic environment has been and remains quite volatile. This does not mean that this company or the market at large is expected to be impacted negatively but it is a factor when crafting a long-term execution strategy.
