Who were the leaders during the cuban missile crisis?
Countries involved in the Cuban missile crisis were Cuba, USA and USSR. Their leaders were Fidel Castro of the Cuban Communist government, President John F. Kennedy of the USA, and Nikita Khrushchev of the USSR. It's important to know which leaders were involved, however, Fidel Castro views were not important. He was a minor player. Whatever Kennedy and Khrushchev decided he had to support. If not he would have lost the USSR as a "friend". And at that time, his only friend was the Soviet Union. China was not a factor.
What problem did Cuba have as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991?
When the Soviet Union fell in 1991, Cuba lost its most powerful ally. The Soviet Union helped the small Island a large amount in an economic fashion and gave Cuba a safety blanket against the US. After 1991, the affect of communism on the Western Hemisphere severly lessened and Cuba is considered a considerably smaller threat now.
Did the us win the Cuban missile crisis?
"Won" is not the usual idea of a crsis end. All of mankind "won" because we are still alive. The fact we got into such a crisis means we all lost something also. The idea that Cuba and Russia could have got nuclear missles that close to us and setup means we could have easily had a major loss of life. The end result is that President Kennedy got Russia and Castro to flicnh and move the missles out of Cuba.
Was the Cuban missile crisis during the cold war?
You need to work this answer abit but the jist of it is: YES the Cuban Missile Crisis was a turning point in the cold war,because: 1. Khrushchev lost prestige - the Russian army generals didn't forgive for having chosen peace (what ither choice did he have?). China broke from Russia, saw her as unable tostand up to the forces of the West. 2. Kennedy gained prestige, his cool yet hawkish response was greatly praised. He was seen as the man who faced down the Russians. 3. Both sides had had a fright. They were more careful in future. The two leaders set up a telephone 'hotline' to talk directly in a future crisis situation. 4. In 1963, they agreed a Nuclear Test Ban Treaty +Treaty for the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons 5. Cuba remained a Communist dictatorship, but America left it alone. NO, it wasn't a turning point because: 1. Ideologies on both sides remained the same, both superpowers still had the same suspicions towards each other. Changed actions not convictions! 2. Tensions arose through the proxy-wars (ie: Vietnam, Afghanistan...) 3. Peace had been accepted mainly because there was NO alternative apart from nuclear annihilation. 4. Crisis was a "pretext", only forced them to physically experience what they had been imagining for several years already, less a consequence of the crisis then of what led up to it.
How did the Cuban missile crisis affect public opinion about president Kennedy?
I was a child, but I recall it as a time when most people were proud of our strong and restrained leadership. Kennedy had the wisdom and courage to say "You shall not pass", and he saw to it. Remember that this was the height of the Cold War, and we feared that the war might be quickly getting "hot". But Kennedy stood firm, and the USSR relented.JFK had not told the people of America about the Cuban Missile Crisis because it didn't want to worry the people. What JFK did was the best thing for the people and it was the right thing.
