1 out 1962 ano - Cuban Missile Crisis

Descrição:

On October 22, 1962, Kennedy revealed that the U.S. reconnaissance planes had spotted Soviet-built bases for intermediate-range ballistic missiles in Cuba. Some of the weapons had already been installed, and more were on the way. Kennedy announced that the United States would impose a "quarantine on all offensive military equipment" on its way to Cuba. The world held its breath to see if the conflict would escalate into war. The risk of nuclear war was greater during the Cuban missile crisis than at any other time in the Cold War which prompted a slight thaw in U.S.-Soviet relations.
