Which statement best describes Kennedy’s response to the building of the Berlin Wall?

Kennedy condemned the Berlin Wall and publicly affirmed U.S. support for West Berlin, but he did not try to tear down the wall or launch an attack on the Soviet Union. His response was to reinforce the U.S. presence in Berlin and reassure its residents. Therefore, the best choice is “Kennedy declared his support for Berlin but took no action against the USSR.”
