Detailed explanation-1: -By the early 1960s however, Khrushchev’s popularity was eroded by flaws in his policies, as well as his handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis. This emboldened his potential opponents, who quietly rose in strength and deposed him in October 1964.
Detailed explanation-2: -The USSR agreed to take the missiles out of Cuba. The U. S. agreed not to invade Cuba and to remove the missiles in Turkey, provided that the removal of the missiles in Turkey was to remain secret. The next morning, Khrushchev announced that the missiles were being dismantled.
Detailed explanation-3: -Nikita Khrushchev expected the United States to invade Cuba and drive Fidel Castro from office before the end of 1962.
