In 1962 President John F. Kennedy was faced with a decision to avoid nuclear war. What occurred to place the United States in that position? Apartheid laws were enacted in South Africa. The Soviets placed missiles in Cuba. Juan Peron became the President of Argentina. The world was never faced with the possibility of nuclear war.

may you please help me out
The soviets placed missiles in Cuba.Early on Tuesday 16 October 1962, John F Kennedy's national security assistant, McGeorge Bundy, brought to the President's bedroom some high-altitude photographs taken from U-2 planes flying over Cuba. They showed Soviet soldiers hurriedly and secretly setting up nuclear-armed missiles.
