Detente

Blueberry Boy (Curtis Howson) and designated 'final girl' Annie (Samantha Hill) enjoy a campfire detente in the film Forgotten Lake.

The reasons for the detente are easy to understand—on both sides.

Our own leaders need to seek detente amid our own people.

The forces that paved the way to detente in 2023 are inherently unstable.

The third possible cause of the detente is quite a different strategic worry—namely, the United States.

Duclos said the Canadian government has fulfilled its end of the trade detente by ensuring Canada isn't a conduit to the U.S. for cheaper overseas product.

A detente could be on the cards.

As a retired US diplomat who worked on arms control policy and efforts to bring about detente with the Soviet Union, I believe the answer is for both parties to accept a “win-win” endgame via long-term collaboration.

Following this detente, it's said that a Stark named Brandon built The Wall, Winterfell and created the Night's Watch to ensure that The Others would never return.

For the negotiating process to stick, the two sides need to generate enough momentum that the slow detente would be hard to stop.

From the end of World War II to the late 1980s, the world was locked in a tense state of detente as nuclear proliferation seemed to be the best solution to keep the peace.

He cited ten years of "Sunshine Policy," a South Korean initiative for detente with the north or at least stability, an effort that required convincing many South Korean voters that the north was not the threat it once had been.

In response to these fears, the leaders of U.S.-allied Japan and South Korea have sought to forge closer ties with the unpredictable Trump, and have also massaged his ego by crediting him with the burgeoning detente with Pyongyang.

Regional currencies have proven to be surprisingly robust this week, perhaps because much of the bad news was already priced in. That detente may not continue for long if the equity sell-off resumes in earnest and bond yields continue to tank.

And a once-budding relationship with the US, Cuba’s arch-enemy, has deteriorated after Donald Trump, the US president, partially reversed the detente launched by his predecessor.

As part of the detente, the two sides agreed to field a unified female hockey team in the Winter Olympics, to be hosted by South Korea next month in Pyeongchang.

During an era of detente in the 2000s, athletes from North and South Korea marched together during the opening and closing ceremonies of nine international sporting events, including the Olympics and Asian Games, but they failed to produce a joint team.

Kim Yo Jong was in the south for the Olympics amid a recent detente between the two neighbors, despite escalating tensions over the North's nuclear weapons program last year and pressure from Seoul's allies in the United States.

Sarah Sanders said the president wouldn’t be “soft or weak” on Pyongyang, despite an apparent Korean detente as the North takes part in the Winter Games, just 30 miles (50 kilometres) from the peninsula’s heavily armed border.
