Answer 2

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there is no excerpt attached or another kind of reference, we could say that what Reagan believed was the best way to reduce the risk of war was clearly stating that the United States would never be an aggressor, that the United States do not start conflicts and fights against other territories.

Wha President Reagan said was that "The defense policy of the United States is based on a simple premise: The United States does not start fights. We will never be an aggressor. We maintain our strength in order to deter and defend against aggression – to preserve freedom and peace."

The message was clear, the United States is a powerful nation and will defend the country as well as other countries that could face the threat of Communist aggression. Those were the final years of the Cold War in which the Soviet Union tried to spread Communist in different parts of the world, and the US made everything on its hands to stop it.
