Explanation:

The Cuban Missile Crisis was a period of extremely tense political, diplomatic and military confrontation between the Soviet Union and the United States in October 1962, which was caused by the deployment of US nuclear weapons in Turkey in 1961 and subsequently by the secret transfer and deployment of nuclear missiles and military units in Cuba by the Soviet Union.

The crisis was caused the U.S. deployment of medium-range Jupiter missiles in Turkey in 1961, which could easily reach cities in the western part of the Soviet Union, including Moscow and the main industrial centers of the USSR. In response to these actions, the Soviet Union deployed nuclear missiles in Cuba, in the immediate vicinity of the US coast.
