Answer 2

Answer:

Immediate withdrawal of missiles and other offensive weapons.

A meeting between the US and the USSR to help secure peace.

Explanation:

Adlai Stevenson was the US Ambassador to the United Nations Security Council regarding the missile crisis in Cuba in 1962. During the session, he bravely and strongly gave an argument about the Cuban missile crisis and also provided photographic evidence to prove his point.

The USSR has continuously denied their presence and establishment of any military base or installed long-range missiles in Cuba. This was proved otherwise by the then US Ambassador, providing a scintillating speech on what the reality is. Directing his question to Mr. Zorin who was the Soviet Ambassador at that time, he questions "Do you, Ambassador Zorin, deny that the U.S.S.R. has placed and is placing medium- and intermediate-range missiles and sites in Cuba? Yes or no—don’t wait for the translation—yes or no?" This accusation was met with no response from Mr. Zorin, who choose to remain silent over the issue. He then proceeded to show photographic images taken over the accused sites for all to see.

He asked for the withdrawal of such weapons from the country so that a major war may be evaded. Ending his argument regarding the claims of the "installed missiles" and other weapons, Mr. Stevenson simply states "Our job here is not to score debating points. Our job, Mr. Zorin, is to save the peace. And if you are ready to try, we are". Thus, the correct answers are the first and last options.
