What is model consequence paragraph?Show answer
"The most important consequence of the Cuban Missile Crisis was the move towards arms control, born of the fear of how close the world had come to nuclear war. The immediate result was that the USSR removed its missiles while the USA promised not to invade Cuba and secretly removed missiles from Turkey, so both sides stepped back. More significant in the long run, the fright pushed the superpowers to manage their rivalry: a hotline was set up so leaders could communicate quickly, and the 1963 Test Ban Treaty became the first major arms-control agreement.
