Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This speech was given by President Kennedy in 1962 in order to address the worrying situation of Soviet arms buildup in Cuba.

In this speech, President Kennedy suggests a series of actions in order to deal with the situation of arms buildup in Cuba. Some of the actions he suggests include:

A strict quarantine on all offensive military equipment under shipment to Cuba (besides those necessary for fulfilling the basic needs of people).

Continued and increased close surveillance of Cuba.

As a policy, all nuclear missiles launched from Cuba against any nation in the West would be considered an attack of the Soviet Union upon the United States.

The reinforcement of Guantanamo.

A meeting of the Organ of Consultation under the Organization of American States.

An emergency meeting of the Security Council.

A call to the Soviet Union to halt hostilities.

i know this is probably late but why not :P
