The president of the USA, John F. Kennedy, decided to place a naval blockade on Cuba. The Soviet ships carrying missiles to be placed in the nearly finished Cuban missile silos approached the blockade and failed to stop. Eventually, at the last second, the ships turned around, and a deal had been reached between the two superpowers. The USSR removed the missile bases, and the USA agreed not to invade Cuba and to accept communist control of Cuba. In secret, President Kennedy had agreed to remove the American missiles in Turkey, which were providing the same threat to the USSR as to the USA.
Russia would pull the missiles out of Cuba.
1962
The Soviet Union wouldn't invade Europe or the western hemisphere and the US wouldn't invade Cuba or Turkey
The Cuban missile crisis.After Fidel Castro led a successful revolt to sieze power in Cuba in 1959 he was courted and mentored buy the Soviet Union, who then secretly installed armed rocket silo's in Cuba Pointed at the USA from less than 100 miles away. It did not take the US, under J F Kennedy, to the discover them. The Soviets were told to remove them or else. The world waited with bated breath. Then the Soviets removed them.
Because of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. Castro wanted to start nuclear war because he believed that the US would nuke him first. So Fidel wrote a letter to Nikita Sergeyevich Krushchev that basically said that if there was going to be a nuclear war, Russia should launch their missiles first. Luckily Krushchev didnt agree with him (that was the Cuban Missile crisis), and everyone thought he was insane for wanting to start nuclear war.
The Soviets agreed to remove the missiles from Cuba and promised never to reintroduce them. The United States openly agreed to never invade Cuba and secretly promised to remove their Jupiter Missiles in Turkey, which they did 6 months later.
To end the Cuban Missile Crisis, President John F. Kennedy agreed to a secret deal with Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev. He promised to publicly announce the withdrawal of U.S. missiles from Turkey, which were positioned near the Soviet border, and to refrain from invading Cuba. In return, Khrushchev agreed to dismantle the Soviet missile sites in Cuba, thereby de-escalating the tense standoff between the two superpowers. This agreement helped avert a potential nuclear conflict.
This did not come about because of any "war", but due to the confrontation between the US and the Soviet Union called the CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS. The US agitation over the missiles in Cuba was matched by Soviet agitation over the missiles in Turkey and the Soviets agreed that they would withdraw their weapons from Cuba if the US did similarly in Turkey.
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) and Cuba were both communist countries, and the Soviet Union provided money and supplies to Cuba during the US trade embargo with Cuba. After the collapse of the Soviet Union all aid to Cuba was cut off. Cuba's close proximity to the United States gave the Soviet Union a foothold in the Western hemisphere at the US doorstep.
Historians generally agree that the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962 was the closest the world came to nuclear war. This tense 13-day confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union arose when the U.S. discovered Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba, just 90 miles from its shores. Both superpowers were on high alert, with the threat of nuclear confrontation looming. Ultimately, diplomatic negotiations led to a de-escalation, but the crisis highlighted the precarious nature of nuclear deterrence and global security.
Yes I do believe we are in a economic crisis
Yes, I do agree that a house for Mr. Biswas would bring forth a crisis.
