Reportedly the purpose was to assure and smooth over any of Castro's fears of becoming sacrificed to allow for better relations between the USSR and the West.

Yes, missiles from the Soviet Union were transported to and assembled in Cuba before the 1963 Cuban missile crisis.In the documentary movie "The Fog of War", Robert McNamara (then the Secretary of Defense for the Kennedy administration) tells of a discussion of his in the 1990's with Cuba's leader Fidel Castro. McNamara recalls that Castro said he not only had nuclear warheads available on the island, but that he would have used them on the US if the US had invaded. Stunned by this McNamara asked if Castro would do this knowing full-well that the US would respond with overwhelming nuclear force, and Castro answered "Yes."I recommend you read about the Cuban Missile Crisis on Wikipedia and there's an excellent little book on the Cold War titled "The Cold War: A Very Short Introduction" by Oxford university press.
