During the Bangladesh crisis of and the Egypt-Israel War of the two super powers extended support to the opposite sides. Last Phase : In this phase certain changes were noticed in the Cold War.

Despite previous Soviet military interventions in Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Poland itself, Polish voters elected a noncommunist opposition government to their legislature. The world watched with anxious eyes, expecting Soviet tanks to roll into Poland preventing the new government from taking power.
Gorbachev, however, refused to act. Like dominoes, Eastern European communist dictatorships fell one by one. Communist regimes were ousted in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. Yugoslavia threw off the yoke of communism only to dissolve quickly into a violent civil war. Demands for freedom soon spread to the Soviet Union. Here Gorbachev wished to draw the line.
