      Probably to test nuclear weapons, or posture for doing so.

        Yeah but the same thing was going on during the original cold war. The US and Russia were both doing hot proxy conflicts in other places, just not directly with each other. Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan were three really notable examples but there were more.
