The Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962 involved the United States, led by President John F. Kennedy, and the Soviet Union, under Premier Nikita Khrushchev. The crisis was sparked by the discovery of Soviet nuclear missiles stationed in Cuba, just 90 miles from the U.S. mainland. Kennedy's administration responded with a naval blockade and intense negotiations, ultimately leading to a resolution that involved the removal of the missiles from Cuba and a U.S. promise not to invade the island. This tense standoff marked a crucial moment in Cold War history, highlighting the dangers of nuclear escalation.
