Tessa Brock · Answer 1

Correct option is: Starting the Strategic Defense Initiative.

President Reagan was willing to negotiate with the Soviets, but he firmly believed that first the American military forces needed to be strong enough.

Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) was a missile defense shield that would protect the American territory, neutralizing any potential threat.

Nevertheless, the project was never carried out, but it was enough to frighten the Soviets.
