    No. John F. Kennedy took many risks.

    In October 1962, the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union put the world on the brink of nuclear conflict. US reconnaissance planes have discovered Soviet medium-range missiles allowed in Cuba.

    On October 22, President John Kennedy, in a televised address, denounced the existence of Russian missiles in Central America.

    The US decreed a naval blockade against the island of Fidel Castro and gave the USSR an ultimatum. Kennedy demanded from the head of state Nikita Khruchov the immediate dismantling of the ramps, the removal of the missiles and the renunciation of the installation of new offensive weapons in Cuba. Washington also warned that if the blockade failed, the island would be invaded.
