The Cuban Missile Crisis (October 1962) featured a standoff between the U.S. and Russia due to the placement of nuclear weapons in Cuba. The placement of weapons had occurred in the aftermath of the unsuccessful Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961, in which Cuban dissidents invaded the island in the hope the population would revolt and overthrow the regime of Fidel Castro. John F. Kennedy addressed the crisis by obtaining clear and irrefutable intelligence showing the presence of medium range and long range ballistic missiles on the island. He instituted a naval blockade, and ordered the immediate dismantling and return of the missiles to Russia. The standoff or crisis was resolved when the Russians agreed to remove the missiles and the United States agreed not to invade Cuba.

What group launched anti-Diem protests in South Vietnam during the summer of 1963 that included street demonstrations and hunger
Ivenika [448]
<span>The answer to that question is Buddhist monks.  This began in 1963 when protesters where shot for demonstrating against the Buddhist’s Flag ban.  This led to numerous protests by Buddhist monks directed against President Ngo Dinh Diem. Diem was a Catholic whose policies were partial to the Catholic minority.  Majority of the Vietnamese population was Buddhist and many were oppressed by his policies.  As a result many monks held protests against his administration’s policies.  One such demonstration led monks to set themselves on fire.  Later on a coup overthrew Diem which led to his arrest and assassination on November 12, 1963.</span>
