The correct answer is (C). During the period of detente, Brezhnev continued to develop the Soviet military. He continued to build nuclear weapons that had the capacity to strike Western Europe and North America, continued to manufacture armaments and military vessels, and continued to build up the size of the Soviet military. These actions lead to the United States and its allies to doubt Brezhnev's intentions to heal relations with other nations and work toward an easing of military and political hostilities.
