Cuban Missile Crisis: Kennedy's Announcement
On October 22, 1962, U.S. President John F. Kennedy publicly announced that American spy planes had discovered Soviet nuclear missile bases under construction in Cuba. This declaration initiated the Cuban Missile Crisis, a 13-day confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. It brought the world to the brink of nuclear war, only to be resolved through intense negotiations and a secret agreement for the removal of missiles from Cuba and later, U.S. missiles from Turkey.
