How was the United States affected by the Cold War's military conflict?

1 answer:

8 0

During the Cold War, the US DID NOT:

-Reduce its military efforts. With the recent clash of ww2 and military rivalry with the Soviet Union, the US had one of the largest military spending during the Cold War.

-Withdrew from alliances. The US was the mastermind behind NATO: an alliance made to defend Europe from communist/Soviet influences that still exists to this day. The US also allied with several countries in conflict with communism to reduce the spread of the ideology.

-Continued partnership with the Soviet Union. During ww2, the two had mural relations to combat the Nazi regime. But due to different influences and ideologies, the relationship between the US and the USSR drifted apart, both economically and militarily.

The correct answer would be the last option: the US engaged in an arms race with the Soviet Union. Since both superpowers shared contrasting political efforts, distrust remained stern between the two sides.
