The Soviet Union claimed the US was doing everything possible to ensure its demise. This included trying to spread democracy and capitalism throughout the world.
During the Cold War, the Soviet Union and the United States attempted to outdo one another in terms of weapons and technology to gain an edge over the opposing superpower. Following the Bay of Pigs, Fidel Castro felt insecure in his control of Cuba, asking fellow Communist ally Nikita Krushchev for aid, taking the form of nuclear arms. Though the U.S. had nuclear missiles in the Middle East placed to attack the USSR, a similar situation with the USSR controlling missiles placed to attack the U.S. from Cuba was deemed an unacceptable threat to national security. - Katherine k
