The best choice that reflects the impact of Kennedy's decisions during the Bay of Pigs invasion is:
a) Kennedy opened the door for Castro to defeat the insurgents.
Kennedy’s decision to pursue the invasion despite reservations and his orders for the air support to be limited were crucial in leading to the failure of the operation. This ultimately reinforced Castro's position in Cuba and made him appear stronger both domestically and internationally. The failure of the Bay of Pigs invasion also damaged the credibility of the United States and led to increased tensions during the Cold War.
