At the beginning of the Cuban Missile Crisis on October 22, 1962, President John F. Kennedy addressed the nation, revealing the presence of Soviet missiles in Cuba. He described the situation as a grave threat to U.S. national security and announced a naval blockade, or quarantine, of Cuba to prevent further shipment of military equipment. Kennedy emphasized the need for a firm response while also expressing a commitment to avoiding war, urging for diplomacy and restraint.
