How did Cold War tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union contribute to the escalation of the Cuban Missile Crisis?

 They made it difficult for either country to agree to a compromise solution to the crisis.

During the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, both countries' diplomats had to be firm and cautious in making their decisions. The world was on the brink of a nuclear war. United States President John F. Kennedy decided to quarantine Cuba. The United States Navy ships blockade the ships coming to the island to certify that they had no nuclear weapons on them. The negotiations between the government of the United States and the Soviet Union were tense all the time until finally, both presidents reached an agreement.

During the Cold War years, the US and the USSR competed in the arms race, the space race, and the spread/containment of Communism.
