Detente was a foreign policy strategy aimed at easing tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, particularly in the 1970s. Major successes included the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT I), which led to significant arms control agreements, and increased diplomatic and economic exchanges between the two superpowers. However, shortcomings included ongoing conflicts such as the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the inability to fully resolve ideological differences, which ultimately led to a resurgence of tensions in the late 1970s and 1980s.
