The end of the Cuban blockade.

Available for over a year

In this press conference at the White House, Kennedy outlines the conditions for lifting the naval blockade. US inspections confirm that all known missile sites have been dismantled and the missiles loaded onto departing Soviet ships. In particular, Kennedy reassures listeners that nuclear weapons have been removed. However, further inspections are required to be carried out by the UN. Until then, Kennedy stresses the importance of continual US inspection before the naval blockade is lifted. Significantly, he also states that the USA will not tolerate Cuba being used as a vehicle for Soviet aggression again.
