The Soviets decided to pull their nuclear weapons of Cuba after reaching an agreement with the United States in October 27, 1962. According to this agreement, President Kennedy agreed to remove missiles from Turkey and Southern Italy, as long as Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev removed all missiles from Cuba. The agreement was most likely reached due to the fact that the leaders of both countries knew that a war would be costly, difficult and extremely deadly.
