What were the effects of the Cuban missile crisis?I don't need an explanation of what it was just the effects.

First, the cuban missile crisis alerted the US that us
cannot totally eradicate the influcen of communism and have to find a way to peacefully
co-exist

Previously, US was confident that they would win
the cold war and build an informal us empire.

Second, it
showed the world that the nuclear arms race should be stopped. Both superpowers realized
that if  the MDW(mass destruction weaon) was employed, the entire would can go extinct.
Many nuclear ban treaties were sign during the 1960s and early 1970s. The prominent ones
are SALT agreement which curbed the deployment and development of the nuclear weapon.
However, these treaties did not actually reduced the nuclear warhead. Actually, the
possession of ICBM(intercontinental balistic missile) of the US increased to 1050
compared to that of 1054 of the us.

Also the entire of hope
of refraining nuclear arms race was shattered when the SU invaded
Afghanistan.

Thirdly, there was definitely a period of
detent both economically and politically. The grain trade greatly marks the
unprecedented cooperation between the two superpowers. However, it, too was short lived,
when SU invaded afghanistan.

Ultimately, it seems that
Cuban missile crisis brought in some new trends in the cold war history such as detente
or nuclear ban treaty, and most prominently, unprocedented cooperation for co-existence
between the us and su. However, all thoser were short-lived, and soon their relationship
returned to what it was before the cmc.
