Fan and Medal! Why did Cuba partner with the Soviet Union during the Cuban Missile Crisis?

Question

anonymous · Answer

The Soviet Union had previously supported Castro’s attempts to promote communism in the Americas.

 Cuba desired to build a more friendly relationship with the United States since it was a Cold War super power that was geographically near to Cuba.

 The Cuban government believed it could open up trade and tourism and build the economy with support from other communist nations.

 The Soviet Union pursued an imperialistic relationship with Cuba in which the Soviets would rule and provide protection to a colonized Cuba.
