Brinkmanship is a foreign policy strategy that involves pushing dangerous events to the brink of conflict to achieve favorable outcomes. The effect of this policy can create heightened tensions and uncertainty, often leading to an increased risk of military confrontation. While it can sometimes compel an opponent to back down and negotiate, it also risks miscalculations that could result in unintended escalation and conflict. Overall, brinkmanship can destabilize international relations and provoke fear among nations involved.
