The Cuban Missile Crisis was thwarted by President Kennedy in 1962. After the failure of the Bay of Pigs Invasion, Khrushchev agreed to put missiles in Cuba to discourage any future attempts. When the United States learned of this, a military blockade was enacted to prevent weapons from being delivered to Cuba. Events escalated nearly to the point of nuclear war before an agreement between Kennedy and Khrushchev was reached that stopped missile construction in Cuba in exchange for the United States publicly announcing it would not engage in any further aggression against Cuba.
