Answer:
To spread Communism
Explanation:
The Cubans were communists, and the main goal of the Soviet Union was to spread communism throughout the world, and although they made the policy of Detente (peaceful coexistence with the US and its allies), their main goal was to replace Communism with Capitalism.
However, there was also another goal. The US had stationed nukes in Turkey, and the Soviets were feeling really threatened. As a result, they wanted a Communist country that they could put nukes in.
Answer:
c)Fear of the atomic bomb combined with prosperity made it a time of
contrasting emotions
Explanation:
Here is a quote from my online textbook [(https://online.vitalsource.com/#/books/0077024125/cfi/6/1336!/4/2/2/[email protected]:1.57) United States History and Geography by McGrall Hill Education, on page 622]
"the country was enjoying postwar prosperity and optimism. That spirit, combined with McCarthyism, fears of Communist infiltration, and the threat of atomic attack, made the early 1950s a time of contrasts. As the 1952 election approached, Americans were looking for someone or something that would make them feel more secure."
I also took this quiz and got the answer right. Hope this helps!
