Answer 2

The Bay of Pigs was a failed attempt to overthrow Cuba's leader, Fidel castro. In the year of 1962, John F. Kennedy authorized an invasion of Cuba and this was the pivotal point of the Cold War. Since Castro had close ties to the Soviet Union, the United States did not want him in power which lead to this.
