Relaxing of tension (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

detente

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">relaxing of tension</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for detente that I've seen before include "Easing of hostility between nations" , "Easing of international tension" , "Easing of strained relations" , "The easing of tensions between nations" , "peace during hostilities" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
