On October 22, 1962, the U.S. discovered missile sites in Cuba and imposed an arms blockade on the island. In one of the most blunt speeches of his presidency, John F. Kennedy told American citizens that the Soviet Union had broken its promise and lied to the U.S., by starting to build offensive missile and bomber bases in Cuba. In this speech, he calls the construction of the bases a "clandestine, reckless, and provocative threat to world peace."
