Question 14 • (OC27) US History-2100310-S2-Meadows
The crisis showed that a confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union could bring the world close to nuclear war, so A is correct. It also showed that the United States would resist Soviet military influence in the Americas, as it did by imposing a naval blockade around Cuba, making D correct. The crisis did not show that Cuba was willing to compromise, and the Soviet Union ultimately withdrew its missiles rather than using force to defend them.
