It was the other way, the "Cuban" missile crisis happened when USA wasn't happy when USSR responded in kind to USA placing missiles in Turkey. So it should be called "Turkish missile crisis" and really "USA missile crisis".
Just the western popular propaganda conveniently omits who was the instigator of entire issue, but it's not that hard to find.
