Question

what was the outcome of the cuban missile crisis?

○ fidel castro sent the soviet union away and established his own nuclear arsenal.

○ the united states backed down, allowed the missiles, and negotiated a treaty with cuba.

○ nikita khrushchev demanded that castro establish missile bases, but castro refused.

○ the soviets backed down and removed the missiles, and the united states agreed to remove its missiles from turkey.

Explanation:

To determine the outcome of the Cuban Missile Crisis, we analyze each option:

• The first option is incorrect as Fidel Castro did not establish his own nuclear arsenal from this crisis outcome.
• The second option is wrong because the US did not allow the missiles; they pressured the Soviets to remove them.
• The third option is incorrect as Khrushchev (Soviet leader) wanted to place missiles in Cuba (Castro agreed initially), not Castro refusing to establish bases.
• The fourth option is correct: The Soviet Union agreed to remove its missiles from Cuba, and in return, the US agreed to remove its missiles from Turkey (a secret part of the agreement initially, later revealed).

Answer:

The Soviets backed down and removed the missiles, and the United States agreed to remove its missiles from Turkey.
