Abstract

The Cuban missile crisis broke out in 1962. For the first time, human beings were put on the verge of nuclear destruction. There are many researches on this crisis, mainly focusing on the reasons and effects of the victory of the United States; The reason and influence of Soviet compromise; The reason why the Soviet Union chose to set up missile bases in Cuba; The theory of crisis management. The research perspective is mostly confined to the Soviet Union and the United States, while there is little discussion on the response of non parties such as Britain to the crisis. Therefore, this article talks about the reaction and attitude of Britain in the Crisis. The article is divided to two parts: the reaction of the common people and the reaction of the British government.
