The US's Response to the Cuban Missile Crisis

In 2021 the US did a series of live fire rocket exercises in Estonia which is right on Russia's northwestern border these missiles were fired off 70 miles from Russia's border. The point of this was to practice destroying air defense targets inside Russia now NATO was actually not actually planning to invade Russia but they saw an attack on Russian air defense systems as part of that defense ploy. One has to look at how this is perceived by Russia what would the US do if Russia or China had formed an alliance on the US border with Canada for instance. Even ordinary American citizens would have felt remarkably threatened and endangered by this, says Peter Bergen.
