Cuban Missile Crisis (16 Okt 1962 Jahr – 28 Okt 1962 Jahr)
Beschreibung:
In 1960 Krushchev strengthened relations with Fidel Castro's Cuba by sending ballistic missiles to Cuba so they could defend themselves against the United States. President Kennedy responded by setting up a blockade around Cuba so they could no longer receive missiles. Both sides stood on the brink of a nuclear war. Finally Kruschchev stepped back and allowed the missiles to be dismantled in Cuba.
