14 MOD 12.5 Mounting Tensions in 1960 s By the end of this lesson, I will be able to: 1. Describe the new military policy of the Kennedy administration 2. Summarize the crises that developed over Cuba

Vietnam
16 Domino Theory Belief that if one country fell to Communism, then eventually the rest of the world would become communist.
17 Kennedy & CUBA Just 90 miles off the coast of Florida, Cuba presented the first big test of JFK s foreign policy Eisenhower administration drew up plans to invade Cuba CIA mission Dictator Fulgencio Batista dictator of Cuba (anticommunist) Could be controlled by USA (1959) Openly Communist, Cuba was led by revolutionary leader Fidel Castro who welcomed aid from the USSR US controlled 75% of the sugar crop b. Castro promised to get rid of poverty c. Castro wins and takes over U.S. companies land d. U.S responds by imposing trade barriers on Cuba e. Cuba turns to USSR for aid

22 EASING TENSIONS Impact of the Crisis Kennedy seen as a leader Khrushchev lost prestige Reduce Nuclear Tensions Move towards Détente relax tensions between the two powers Hotline telephone communication between USA and USSR 1963 Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Ended above ground nuclear tests USA, Great Britain, USSR 36 other nations also signed Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Not to give or sell nuclear weapons to other countries USSR promises to remove missiles from Cuba and the US secretly promises to remove missiles from Turkey leads to the Hotline
