Meaning of New Cold War | Babel Free

Noun CEFR C1

Definitions

Synonym of Cold War II.

Examples

“The 'New Cold War' period of the late 1970s and early 1980s gave way to a renewed East–West rapprochement under Gorbachev, the momentum of which eventually ended the Cold War with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.”
“In fact, the opposite is reality: we should not be welcoming the New Cold War.”
“Just like last month's strikes on Syria put the US, France, and the UK on the opposite side of Russia, China, and Iran, so too might Trump's decision to tinker with or outright scrap the nuclear agreement do the same in exacerbating the growing New Cold War divide between the world's unipolar and multipolar forces.”
