Nuclear weapons significantly shaped the Cold War by creating a tense balance of power, known as mutually assured destruction (MAD), which deterred direct military conflict between the superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union. The threat of nuclear annihilation influenced diplomatic strategies, arms races, and proxy wars, as both nations sought to expand their influence without engaging in direct confrontation. Additionally, the presence of nuclear arsenals fueled fear and anxiety globally, leading to various arms control agreements aimed at mitigating the risks of escalation. Ultimately, the nuclear dimension added a complex layer to international relations during this period, impacting political decisions and military strategies.
Nuclear weapons WERE the cold war. No Nukes, No Cold War.

The Cold War had the potential to severely impact the earth through the effects of expolding hundreds of nuclear weapons if it ever became a hot war. But as the Cold War did not result in a nuclear confrontation, it had esseentially no impact on the earth.

Nuclear weapons led to the cold war. Noting else. No nukes, no cold war. If nuclear weapons did not exist, the US and USSR may have fought a regular conventional war, just like WW2...only it would have been called WW3. Nuclear weapons led to the cold war. Noting else.

No Nuclear weapons were used during the cold war. The cold war was a stand off between soviet Russia and America, where they treated either with a lot of suspicion and distrust. However, it was not a 'War' in the literal sense of the word.
