The answer would be D.)The Cuban Missile Crisis.

The Bay of Pigs was a coup led by Cuban rebels in 1959, which was three years earlier.

The Star Wars (yes, that's what it's actually called,) was a proposed early-warning system that would destroy Russian missiles if they were launched. (Also known as the strategic defense initiative.)

Finally, detente was a term most commonly used during the Cold War, meaning to ease strained relations.

Hope I could help! :)
