Reverse [synonyms for]

Please consider the following excerpt:

Is the American in good faith? Why now? What's next? Questions pile up in the wake of a decision that reverses 70 years of U.S. diplomacy in the Middle East.

My question is this:

Would you please give me a few synonyms for "reverses" that fit the context above?

By the way, is it "synonyms for" or "synonyms of"?

Thank you.
