The Cuban Missile Crisis

The Cuban Missile Crisis was consider the hottest moment in the Cold War because that was the day that the U.S and Russia were on the brake of war with nuclear bombs. Also it was that Russia put bombs on Cuba pointed at the U.S and so if the U.S could not harm Russia because Russia had as much atomic bombs as the U.S and could destroy each other, then in turn the U.S pointed there atomic bombs at Cuba. Kennedy did not want an atomic bomb war and so he wanted a peace agreement to not us bombs.
