Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Option B is most consistent with a GRIT (Graduated and Reciprocated Initiatives in Tension-Reduction) strategy. It involves taking an initial conciliatory step towards the opponent, with the hope that they will respond in kind. In this case, the announcement of cutting down the defense expenditures and inviting the enemy to do the same is an attempt to reduce tensions between the two countries, and hopefully result in a reciprocal gesture from the enemy. Option A is not consistent with GRIT, as it involves a threat of nuclear attack which would only escalate the tension. Option C could be consistent with a containment strategy but not GRIT. Option D involves taking the issue to the international court, rather than making a conciliatory gesture towards the opponent.
