Krushchev
Alexey Kosygin succeeded Nikita Krushchev as leader of the Soviet Union on October 14, 1964.
First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (from 1953-1964)
Krushchev was the dictator of the USSR which was serious military power and had taken over much of Eastern Europe in the aftermath of WW II. In particular, the USSR controlled East Germany with exception of the western part of Berlin which was surrounded by East Germany. While Kennedy was president, Krushchev ordered a blockade of the roads leading into West Berlin, in an apparent attempt to capture it. This put the US and USSR on the brink of war. Krushchev also made a treaty with communist Cuba and attempted to set up missile bases there with Soviet missiles. This produced another crisis. In short, Krushchev had great military power under his command and showed clear hostility to US interests.
