Andi: Although there is currently some tension between America and Russia (and China), it's definitely not like it was during the cold war. East-west relations at that time were like what you currently see in Korea. The Soviets were not as irrational as the Kim dynasty, but much like North Korea today, communist countries were extremely isolated from the west. In the sixties, Russians would actually have to smuggle Beatles records into their country. China was even more isolated. There was a definite sense that the world was split in two, with very little communication or interaction going on between the two halves.

Pretty sure Pakistan was always US aligned, it still is today. They were part of CENTO, NATO's middle eastern counterpart.

Greece was the first victim of the Cold War (Greek Civil War 1946-1949)... And again in 1967 when there was a coup by military junta that ruled for 7 years and was backed up by Americans...

Many people do not realize how close the world was from having a nuclear war. It was not one, but TWO close calls.

[@unadin4583]

I guess the obvious one was the Cuban missile crisis. What was the other one?

[@avelus5984]

Much later, in 1983, the Soviet nuclear early-warning system incorrectly reported that America had launched missiles against the Soviet Union. Stanislav Petrov, a Soviet officer in charge of the system, thought that it was a false alarm and didn’t retaliate against the “missiles”. Petrov confirmed his suspicions after no missile arrived. If it had been someone else that thought it was missiles heading towards the USSR, the Soviets would have immediately retaliated against the US, who would see this as an act of war and declare war to the Soviet Union, causing the Western Block and the Eastern Block to engage in a war, likely nuclear. It all depended on a man's judgment. And thankfully, it was right.

Βουλγαροκτόνος1014 I checked it out. De Gaulle withdrew France's troops from unified NATO command and removed the foreign bases in France, but France was still part of NATO de jure.
