At the height of the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union, each had made sure that if their country was to fall to nuclear destruction, it would take the other with it. That was “deterrence,” the idea that if a country had the ability to retaliate in a way that was almost unthinkable — guaranteed nuclear annihilation — no one would dare attack them. Underground missile silos filled with nuclear warheads pre-programmed to target major cities was that deterrence.
