    Paragraph: In Europe, only one nation and those it controls refuse to join the community of freedom. Yet in this age of redoubled economic growth, of information and innovation, the Soviet Union faces a choice: It must make fundamental changes, or it will become obsolete. Today thus represents a moment of hope. We in the West stand ready to cooperate with the East to promote true openness, to break down barriers that separate people, to create a safer, freer world.

    Answer: False dilemma

    Explanation:

    This paragraph is considering an excerpt from Ronald Reagan's speech: ''Tear Down This Wall''.

    When in we have a false dilemma in literature or speech they are two options or opinions on something even if there could be more opinions. It is also used when there could be more options that are possible but the one who is talking or writing is only considering two options.

    In this case, Ronald Reagan was talking about Soviet Union and that it has only two options which were becoming obsolete and fundamental changes. He considered them as only alternatives.
