Question 12 • 11011de2 CONNECTED Fall 2026 NM-US History and Geography S2

Which of the following best describes the relationship between President George H. W. Bush and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev?

Answer
A
They met very infrequently.
B
They negotiated arms-reduction agreements.
C
They worked together to oppose reform.
D
They developed a hostile working relationship.

Explanation

Bush and Gorbachev met several times and negotiated important arms-control agreements as the Cold War eased. For example, they signed the START treaty in 1991, which reduced the number of strategic nuclear weapons. Their relationship was cooperative rather than hostile, so “They negotiated arms-reduction agreements” is the best description.
