Best Answer

The Soviet Union supported communist revolutions in many countries, on the theory that capitalist systems are unjust and need to be overthrown. There was a constant maneuvering for power between the communist bloc, which was largely controlled by the Soviet Union, and the free world led by the US. Nuclear arsenals were used by both sides as a deterrent to any direct form of attack.
