Step-by-step explanation:
The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 resulted in the greatest threat of nuclear war. It was a 13-day political and military standoff between the United States and the Soviet Union over the installation of Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba. The crisis is considered the closest the world ever came to nuclear war, with both sides preparing for a possible military conflict. The crisis was eventually resolved through diplomatic negotiations, with the Soviet Union agreeing to remove its missiles from Cuba in exchange for a US promise not to invade Cuba and to remove US missiles from Turkey.
