Question

Which event did the Soviet Union fear during the Cold War?

Answer 1

The third alternative is correct (C).

In the context of the Cold War, the world was bipolarized by the leadership of the US, capitalist and communist USSR. It was a dispute of hegemony, so the fear on both sides was to lose the leading role and see the economic model crumble. This is what happened to the USSR. A social and economic collapse of the USSR led to the end of the Cold War and the triumph of the capitalist model. Both sides also feared a warlike confrontation, so that the USSR could be destroyed if the capitalist nations contended for war.
