What event led to the removal of nuclear Missiles from Cuba and turkey during the cold war

Answer 1

The event that led to the removal of nuclear missiles from Cuba and Turkey during the Cold War was the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962. The crisis was a 13-day confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union, sparked by the discovery of Soviet ballistic missile installations in Cuba. In exchange for the removal of the missiles from Cuba, the United States agreed to remove its own nuclear missiles from Turkey. This resolution helped to ease tensions between the two superpowers and avert a potential nuclear war.
