The USA put Jupiter nuclear missiles into Turkey on the border of the Soviet Union.
Following this, the USSR moved nuclear missiles into Cuba.
To end the crisis, both countries removed the missiles from both Turkey and from Cuba.
Like I don't know this already...
That doesn't explain the fact that Khrushchev just walked into Cuba and thought he could just put nukes there undetected.
You do realize Khrushchev and his minions denied all of it until confronted with U2 spy plane photos?
