Bruce Biassot argues that despite fears of a nuclear holocaust, the Soviet Union seeks to avoid direct conflict. The Middle East war demonstrated Moscow’s desire to prevent a big war, using direct White House-Kremlin contact to signal restraint. Kosygin’s teletype to the president underscored that nuclear destruction is not the inevitable outcome of Vietnam or other crises. Fedorenko’s role reflects Russia’s mischief-maker policy, which fuels regional conflicts post World War II.
