Question

The U.S.-Soviet alliance during the Gulf War did not occur until 1991, two years after the end of the Cold War. A period of détente began in 1971, during which relations between the two factions warmed. Four years later, the countries undertook their first joint space mission-the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project-marking an end to the Space Race. The election of Ronald Reagan caused an end to the détente, but the two parties began to make strides later in the decade to establish an enduring peace. Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev declared a policy of perestroika ("rebuilding") in 1986, which was meant to reform the Soviet economic and political systems. In late 1989 the Berlin Wall fell, and Gorbachev and President George H. W. Bush declared the Cold War to be over.
