What was the major motivator of the arms race during the Cold War?
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

A. Both the Soviet Union and the United States worried that the other

would build up a larger nuclear arsenal.

Explanation:

The arms race began after the end of World War II, when the former allies saw each other as a dangerous ideological rival, and not a friend. The USA already had atomic weapons and the leaders of the USSR were afraid that they would have nothing to use for defense if the USA decided to attack the USSR. The United States was afraid of the widespread increase in the authority of the USSR and the expansion of the list of countries with communist rule. It is worth saying that by this time Stalin had not abandoned the idea of world revolution. Also, disagreements on ideological grounds were felt increasingly more sharply. The impetus was the speech of Winston Churchill in Fulton. The United States began to run up its nuclear potential.

In the conditions of the Cold War, the arms race had an extremely important meaning, since at any moment a real battle could begin. Each of the countries wanted to have better military means than their opponents, so that in case of war they would have an advantage.

What was a major difference in the political platforms of Herbert Hoover and Alfred Smith? for plato
yarga [219]

Answer:

Smith favored buying farm surpluses, while Hoover believed in funding organizations that would help farmers with the surpluses

Explanation:

A major difference in the political platforms of Herbert Hoover and Alfred Smith is that Smith favored buying farm surpluses, while Hoover believed in funding organizations that would assist farmers with the surpluses.

Herbert Clark Hoover who was born on August 10, 1874 and died on October 20, 1964 was an American engineer, businessman, and politician who was elected as the 31st president of the United States in 1929 to 1933. Hoover was a member of the Republican Party, and he held office during the beginning of the Great Depression. Prior to serving as president, Hoover led the Commission for Relief in Belgium and was the director of the United States Food Administration, and served as the 3rd U.S. Secretary of Commerce.

When the United States entered the war, President Woodrow Wilson appointed Hoover to lead the Food Administration, and Hoover was widely known as the country's "food czar". After the war, Hoover led the American Relief Administration, which made available food to the inhabitants of Central Europe and Eastern Europe.

Alfred Emanuel Smith who was born in December 30, 1873 and died on October 4, 1944 was an American politician and the Governor of New York who served four terms during his time and was also the Democratic Party's candidate for president in 1928, and also favored buying farm surpluses during his time.
