How did president kennedy refer to the blockade ordered against cuba in october 1962? as an iron curtain as an embargo as a cold war as a quarantine

The answer is A QUARANTINE

Dunno if this'll help

The correct answer is quarantine.

On October 22, 1962, President John F. Kennedy announced a 'quarantine' of Cuba. This was done in retaliation of the discovery of Soviet weapons facilities on the island.

This event started the so called Cuban Missile Crisis.

The word 'quarantine' was used on purpose. It meant prevention of 'all offensive military equipment under shipment to Cuba'. The word 'blockage' would have meant preventing all trade and travel to Cuba and it is officially an act of war. President Kennedy did not want a direct war with the Soviet Union.

The Cuban Missile Crisis ended a week later, the Soviet Union agreed to withdraw all missiles from Cuba and the United States agreed to withdrawn theirs from Turkey.
