What did Kennedy agree to do to end the missile crisis?

To end the Cuban Missile Crisis, President John F. Kennedy agreed to a secret deal with Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev. He promised to publicly announce the withdrawal of U.S. missiles from Turkey, which were positioned near the Soviet border, and to refrain from invading Cuba. In return, Khrushchev agreed to dismantle the Soviet missile sites in Cuba, thereby de-escalating the tense standoff between the two superpowers. This agreement helped avert a potential nuclear conflict.
