Solution

The correct option is D Vietnam War
The USA and the USSR never fought directly. Instead, they pulled other countries into fighting their war. These wars are known as proxy wars. Example are- the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the 1956 Suez Canal crisis, the 1961 Berlin crisis, and the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis.
