The only countries that the USSR aimed missiles at were China, and the US, they did so to try to equalize the strategic balance. Because the US had placed missiles in West Germany, Turkey, Greece, and an island in the pacific. So the USSR felt tat they were under gunned and placed more missiles in more places.
