The author reflects on the Berlin tunnel's impact (or lack thereof) on the Cold War, connecting it to the events that followed (like the Berlin Wall and its fall). The tone is not admiring (the tunnel didn't alter the Cold War course), not frightened (no indication of fear in the text), and not humorous (the "propaganda frenzy" is just a factual mention).

The tone is more reflective as the author connects the Berlin tunnel to the Cold War that followed.
