Answer 1

The correct answer is - by blockading the island with aircraft carriers.

The United States responded by blocking the island as much as possible, by using numerous aircraft carriers that circled around the island, they were trying to threaten them, and also to be able to block or to respond quickly to any attack from Cuban territory.
