20 янв 1960 г. - Inauguration of John F. Kennedy

Описание:

JFK foreign policy is characterised by several key events. The first of which was the failed 1961 coup attempt in Cuba, the Bay of Pigs. However, the 1963 Cuban Missile Crisis, where the USSR began the construction of long-range nuclear weapons in Cuba, culminated in the Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty with the USSR, the first of its kind. This is generally seen as a successful foreign policy outcome, likely due to the Kennedy administration's flexibility - headed up by Robert McNamara.
