A consequence of the Cuban Missile Crisis was **a souring of relations between the US and USSR and an acceleration of the arms race**. While the crisis did lead to some diplomatic efforts, such as the establishment of a direct communication line (the "Hotline") between Washington and Moscow, it also heightened tensions and contributed to an ongoing arms buildup on both sides.
