[00:00:00]October 28, 1962, Fidel Castro learned that the Soviet Union had agreed to withdraw its nuclear missiles from Cuba by listening to the radio, the same way any ordinary citizen would, because Khrushchev had negotiated the fate of his country directly with Kennedy without informing him, without consulting him, without including a single Cuban demand in the secret agreement. And when Castro finally understood what had happened, he struck the wall, insulted Khrushchev in language his own collaborators refused to write down, and locked himself away for hours. Because the missiles had been placed on Cuban soil to solve a Soviet strategic problem. The negotiations have been conducted to serve Soviet interests, and the secret deal that ended the crisis, the withdrawal of American missiles from Turkey, was a benefit obtained exclusively for Moscow.
