Why do you think the Soviet Union put nuclear missiles in Cuba?

To understand that we need to understand the Cold War as much as it can be understood.The USA and its Allies Against The Soviet Union and its Allies like Cuba.The whole Cold War was based on the idea of a deterrent called "Mutually Assured Destruction" With the entirely appropriate acronym of "MAD".The USA had used their influence and Allies to place Medium and Short Range Nuclear Missiles in Europe targeting the Soviet Block Countries.The Soviet Union had no equivalent Deterrent targeting Mainland USA.Cuba wanted to be supportive of their Friends in Communist Soviet Union and as they were very unhappy with the USA and the embargo that had harmed their Economy.So these factors lead to the placement of Soviet medium range Missiles in Cuba and the Cuban Missile crises .
