Question

Which Cold War leader was known for opposing détente and promoting an aggressive foreign policy toward the Soviet Union?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ronald Reagan.

Explanation:

Ronald Reagan was the 40th President of the United States from 1981 to 1989. Reagan publicly described the Soviet Union as "the realm of evil" and supported anti-communist movements worldwide, thus abandoning the policies of appeasement of said conflict carried out during the 1970s by the democratic governments of Nixon and Ford. Reagan, however, simultaneously sought a diplomatic way out of the arms race between the US and the Soviet Union; this resulted in the conclusion of the INF treaty in which both countries agreed to destroy a large number of nuclear missiles.
