Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Proxy means that something is done representing something or someone else. If you tell somebody to say hi to someone for you, they are saying hi to that other person in proxy for you.

Answer B talks about sending spies. This has nothing to do with proxy.

Answer C talks about getting more weapons. This doesn't have anything to do with representation.

Answer D talks about engaging in direct military conflicts. If the US and USSR armies were fighting each other, that would not be proxy because there is no one else representing them.

Answer A talks about supporting armies in conflicts around the world. In Korea, the USSR supported North Korea and the US supported South Korea. These two fought kind of on behalf of the USSR and US, so it is basically proxy. North Korea represented the USSR and South Korea represented the US.

Therefore, the answer is A. supporting armies in conflicts around the world.

Have a wonderful day! :D

What two things were accomplished in the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II signed by President Carter and Premier Brezhnev?
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II aimed to:

b. Banned any new development of nuclear weapons

d. Managed to reduce the size of their nuclear arsenals

Explanation:

The Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty II or SALT II was the continuation of a previous attempt to regulate the nuclear arms threat between the US and the USSR.  This happened during a period known as the Cold War where the world was divided into 2 blocks competing for power: the Capitalist block led by the US, and the Communist block led by the USSR.

Both countries had developed large arsenals of nuclear weapons and a war between them would've had catastrophic consequences.  Talks between President Jimmy Carter and Premier Brezhnev began in November 1974.  They agreed to: limit the size of their nuclear arsenals, limit the development of new weapons, and limit the deployment of new offensive weapons.  

The treaty was signed on June 18, 1979.

15 points for help!!

Answer:

  • The cartoon plays on the common idea that bureaucracy is overly complicated, and that it requires a lot of paperwork to perform even the most simple of tasks. People also assume that this ludicrous amount of paperwork makes bureaucracy slow and inefficient.
  • While bureaucracy can be slow and inefficient at times, people often forget that the paperwork is there for specific reasons. Leaving a written record of every action taken ensures that accidents happen less often, and that accountability is maintained. Also, bureaucratic procedures can be slow because of the amount of people that require them or due to the complexity of some issues. So the stereotype of bureaucracy is for the most part undeserved.
