Diplomatic way of solving this conflict.
I would like to tell about the “Cuban Missile Crisis” and diplomatic way of solving this conflict.
“The Cuban Missile Crisis was a thirteen-day confrontation from October 15 to October 28, 1962 between the United States and the Soviet Union over the positioning of nuclear missiles in Cuba.
In 1962, the Soviet Union secretly placed nuclear-tipped missiles on the Communist-led island of Cuba. The Soviet Union put missiles in Cuba for two primary reasons: (1) to boost the Soviet Union’s power, threatening the U.S. with nuclear attack from the Caribbean and (2) to bolster the Soviet Union’s bargaining position in its attempts to force West Berlin to join East Germany.
After discovering the missiles in October, President Kennedy announced the discovery to the world and imposed a naval blockade on further shipments of armaments to Cuba.
Following a period of intense discussions and fear of a nuclear catastrophe, President John F. Kennedy made a proposal to Premier Nikita Khrushchev that the Soviet leader accepted. Kennedy offered two things in exchange for Soviet removal of the Cuban missiles: (1) the U.S. would publically pledge never to invade Cuba and (2) the U.S. would secretly withdraw missiles from Turkey. The U.S. refused to publically admit to removing the Turkish missiles because it did not want to appear weak.
The removal of missiles from Turkey was so important for the Soviet Union because the U.S. had prepared for a possible war in Europe by placing nuclear weapons in allied countries. Bombers and ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons were intended as a deterrent against a Soviet invasion of Germany and other NATO countries.
The reasons why Khrushchev withdrew missiles from Cuba are still somewhat uncertain but scholars conclude that Khrushchev knew that the war over Cuba could quickly escalate into nuclear war that would destroy both superpowers....
