How did the US respond to finding out that the Soviets had missiles inCub?

Answer 1

When the U.S. discovered Soviet missiles in Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962, President John F. Kennedy implemented a naval blockade, termed a "quarantine," to prevent further shipments of military equipment to Cuba. He also demanded the removal of the missiles and prepared for potential military action. The crisis heightened tensions between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, but ultimately, diplomatic negotiations led to the Soviets agreeing to dismantle the missiles in exchange for a U.S. promise not to invade Cuba and the secret removal of U.S. missiles from Turkey.
