In response to the naval blockade during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, the Soviet Union initially escalated tensions by sending ships towards Cuba, signaling their intent to challenge the blockade. However, after intense negotiations and the threat of military confrontation, Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev ultimately decided to withdraw the missiles from Cuba in exchange for a secret agreement to remove U.S. missiles from Turkey and a commitment not to invade Cuba. This resolution helped avert a potential nuclear conflict while highlighting the limits of direct military engagement between the superpowers.

President Kennedy chose a naval blockade during the Cuban Missile Crisis to avoid escalating tensions into a full-scale war, particularly with the Soviet Union.

This option aimed to prevent further delivery of Soviet missiles to Cuba without provoking an immediate military confrontation, which could have had catastrophic consequences. Additionally, a blockade provided time for diplomacy and negotiation while maintaining pressure on the Soviet leadership.
