a breakdown in arms-control negotiations.

In 1983 arms-control talks were stalled amid NATO missile deployments, Reagan's hard-line policies (SDI, "evil empire" rhetoric), and crises like the downing of Korean Air Lines Flight 007 and the tense Able Archer exercises — all of which increased US–Soviet tensions.
