United state tried to invade Cuba to make them a non-communist country as they feared having communist country so close. Soviet Union provided weapons to Cuba so they can fight back. During the Cuba Missile Crisis, US found a missle site which was near range of  every town in US. United State demanded these missles removed. Soviet Union agreed to remove in exchange of promising not to invade Cuba. In the end, United State failed to contain communism hence, communism expanded during Cuba Cold War.]]> 2021-05-18 12:46:55 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535330581 Fidel Castro was the communist cuban who led cuba with the help of the soviets to create a communist nation aeg231 https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535331139 2021-05-18 12:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535331139 mkl231 https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535334895 The Bay of Pigs Invasion lasted from April 17-19, 1961, and the missile sites in Cuba were discovered by the US in October 1962.]]> 2021-05-18 12:48:04 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535334895 the US got involved because they feared a communist nation so close by to their borders since cuba is off the coast of florida by attempting to overthrow fidel castro with the bay of pigs. That failed and led to castro asking for weapons from the soviets to defend themselves. They put the missiles in close range of the US which frightened them and began the cuban missile crisis. aeg231 https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535342665 2021-05-18 12:49:59 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535342665 mkl231 https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535354347 2021-05-18 12:52:16 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535354347 Soviets removed their missiles mkl231 https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535357172 There was 13 days of tension and threat of nuclear war, but the Nikita Khrushchev agreed to remove the missiles as long as the US promised not to invade Cuba.]]> 2021-05-18 12:52:58 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535357172 the cubans removed the missiles and US in return promised to not invade, so communism expanded as it is still a communist nation today aeg231 https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535361692 2021-05-18 12:54:03 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/7880j9oj42dl85ll/wish/1535361692 Cuba stayed communist and highly armed though the Soviet missiles were removed under UN supervision. Both sides considered they had secured a victory.
