Which best describes the overall effect of President Carter’s actions in response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan?

Carter responded to the Soviet invasion with measures such as a grain embargo, restrictions on trade, and a U.S. boycott of the 1980 Olympics. These actions signaled opposition but did not immediately make the Soviet Union withdraw or change its conduct in Afghanistan. So the best choice is that Carter’s actions had no immediate effect on the Soviet Union.
