the bush administration helped bring about the collapse of the soviet union by opposing gorbachevs reforms supporting gorbachevs reforms negotiating arms reductions ending the cold war

Answer

Brief Explanations:

The Bush - administration supported Gorbachev's reforms which contributed to the internal changes in the Soviet Union and its eventual collapse. Negotiating arms reductions was part of the broader Cold - War detente but not the main factor in the Soviet collapse. Ending the Cold War was a result of the Soviet Union's collapse rather than a cause. Opposing Gorbachev's reforms would not have led to the Soviet Union's collapse in the way it happened.

Answer:

B. supporting Gorbachev's reforms
