<em>John Fitzgerald Kennedy</em> was an American politician who served as the 35th President of the United States between 1961 until his assassination in 1963.

On October 22nd, 1962, President Kennedy imposed a <em>US naval blockade of Cuba</em> as a result of US  spy planes founding Soviet missiles in the Caribbean Island. President Kennedy gave a speech on National Television telling the citizens about the findings, and how those Russian missiles had the power to cause major destruction to several cities of the United States, including its capital Washington D.C. This naval blockade exposed the already existing tensions between the US and the Soviet Union, and for many days there was the fear of a nuclear war between the two powers.
