They gave them money, and they also where going to ship nuclear bombs there but the where quite loud about it and said that there was nothing the US could do and when the boats where en route a fleet of ships got in its way and said that if they didn't turn back they would stop them with brute force.

Fidel Castro at first during his revolution, wasn't a communist or a socialist. He also had asked the US for help in overthrowing the regime in Cuba, except he learned that the US was backing the other side, So he found that the only group that would help him were the Soviets and he took bigger and bigger loans and support from them.

Cuba is located close the American shore, which would have made it easier to attack if necessary.
