1 Dez 1979 Jahr - Afghanistan invasion

Beschreibung:

The Afghanistan invasion sparked the Cold War during the 1980s. Thatcher and president Ronald Reagan had one of the most strongest connections a Prime Minister and American President ever had. Although they had slight tensions such as the US weapons sales to Argentina being opposed by Thatcher, both political leaders shared economic and political ideology particularly anti-communism. Even when Thatcher sent a rather angry letter to Reagan about not stopping weapons sales to Argentina, Regan said to his political colleague "Well. That's Maggie".
