The correct option is " to further hurt a struggling Soviet Union economy because oil exports were their main source of income"

The high point of the Reagan presidency was his first 100 days in office, initiated with the end of the hostage crisis in Iran, after being released minutes after his takeover. The first official act of Reagan was to end the control of oil prices, hoping to increase domestic production of fuel and encourage exploration, the retail price of a gallon of gasoline went from an average of 28.5 cents in May 1981 to 65.1 cents in June 1982.

The correct answer here is C.

The Cold War was waged on many fronts. They may not have been literal fronts in classic sense but fronts nonetheless. There were proxy wars but also cultural and economic wars as well. The reduction of oil prices by Saudi Arabia were significant because they hurt the struggling economy of the Soviet Union.

Explanation:

The Berlin Wall (in German, Berliner Mauer, pronounced / (listen)) was a security wall that formed part of the inter-German border from August 13, 1961 until November 9, 1989. It surrounded and separated the area of the Berlin city framed in the economic space of the Federal Republic of Germany (RFA), West Berlin, of the capital of the German Democratic Republic (GDR) between those years.It is the best known symbol of the Cold War and of the division of Germany.This wall was referred to in the GDR as "Antifascist Protection Wall" (Antifaschistischer Schutzwall) and by the media and part of Western public opinion as "wall of shame" (Schandmauer

The Eastern Bloc dominated by the Soviets argued that the wall was built to protect its population from fascist elements that conspired to prevent the popular will to build a socialist state in East Germany.

A 45-kilometer wall divided the city of Berlin into two, while another 115 kilometers surrounded its western part, isolating it from the GDR. That is, the Wall was the state border between the GDR and the West Berlin enclave. It was one of the best known symbols of the Cold War and the separation of Germany.
