Well, if i knew that some dangerous people were constructing missiles, i would want to stop it, so he was probably scared and wanted to keep the country safe without causing too much of a problem.
There is no picture of any actual missiles in Cuba.. All the pictures are of sites and trucks and empty carriers and items covered up. The entire ploy was to get the US to remove Missiles from Turkey.
Russia placed missiles in Cuba during the cold war to provide counter attack if the USA. made a attack. The missiles were eventually moved out of Cuba when JFK won a debate between Fidel Castro, JFK, and Nikita Khrushchev.because the U.S. already has missiles in turkeyThe Soviet missiles were located in Cuba, because it was close enough to the Soviet enemy(US), and Fidel Castro was willing to put the missiles in his country.

The country that created a standoff between the US and USSR was Cuba, particularly during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. The Soviet Union had placed nuclear missiles in Cuba, just 90 miles from the US mainland, prompting a tense 13-day confrontation. This crisis brought the two superpowers to the brink of nuclear war and highlighted the intense geopolitical rivalry of the Cold War era.
