On October 22, President Kennedy spoke to the nation about the crisis in a televised address. No one was sure h ow Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev would respond to the naval blockade and US demands. ... In 1963, there were signs of a lessening of tensions between the Soviet Union and the United States.
