Solution
The Hot Line Telephone Link between America and Russia was introduced after the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. The Cuban Missile Crisis brought the world to the brink of nuclear war due to miscommunication and high tensions. To prevent such a dangerous situation from happening again, both nations agreed to set up a direct communication link, the “Hot Line”, to allow quick and clear contact between the U.S. President and the Soviet Premier during future crises.
