As the idea of Détente moved forward one central goal for the west was the promotion of what important moral idea. a) Strong Military b) Continued fighting of communism c) Human Rights d) Animal rights

Answers A and D are incorrect.

The idea of Détente grew as the United States, the Soviet Union and their respective allies sought to reduce the risk of nuclear war. Nevertheless, the Communists used subtle methods of repression: intimidation, imprisonment, refusal of access to studies, refusal to work or dismissal for political reasons.

The legitimacy of communism has been destroyed by the regular condemnation of these practices by the international press because one of the central objectives of the West was the promotion of human rights.

Answer C is the correct answer
