3. According to U. S. President Ronald Reagan, the Soviet Union of the 1980s did not need to be defeated,

because it would "deteriorate, or break down from within." What did he mean? Give examples to support your

claim.

this means that they don't need to be involved in a war to destroy the Soviet Union because it is a Dictatorship state and the people of the country will destroy the Union by making a revolution and thats exactly what happened in 1991.

Exaple what Ronald Rexon said is the Othmani Empire.
