How did John F. Kennedy's foreign policy agenda envision new initiatives aimed at countering communist influence in the world? How successful was Kennedy's foreign policy?

John F. Kennedy was president from 1961 to 1963. His foreign policy measures were conducted during cold war tensions. One of his important strategies was to reduce the possibility of war by miscalculation. He resolved the Cuban Crisis peacefully and also de-escalated Berlin tensions. Some of the wrong moves of his foreign policy were the invasion of pigs of bay and miscalculation of the situation of Vietnam,

While Eisenhower depended on retaliation in his foreign policy but he also lost Latin America, Africa, and Asia to communists. Th is was the failure of his foreign policy. Similarly, Kennedy gave nod to the invasion of Pigs of Bay which was a major military failure full of faulty intelligence. He also failed to draw a line against the communists in Laos which Eisenhower administration had urged. Eisenhower had made successful negotiations with the Soviet Union while the limited test ban treaty signed by John F. Kennedy only outlawed the atmospheric testing.
