Malinovsky orders Pliev to load all tactical nuclear weapons on the ship “Atkarsk” and return them to the Soviet Union

Mikoyan reports to the CC CPSU regarding his conversations with the Cuban leadership. Fide Castrol had concerns about the possible withdraw of all Soviet weapons and all military specialists from Cuba and the possibility of UN inspections on Cuban territory.

Malinovsky informs Pliev that withdrawal of Luna missiles, FKR [cruise missiles] and IL-28 airplanes has not been discussed and they will probably be left in Cuba under his command.

Malinovsky sends Pliev a timeline for transfer of weapons to the Cubans.

Malinovsky orders Pliev to load R-12 warheads onto the Alexandrovsk for return to the Soviet Union.

Malinovsky orders Pliev not to dispatch fighter aircraft in order to avoid collisions with US reconnaissance planes.

Malinovsky tells Pliev he was "too hasty" for shooting down a US U-2 spy plane and instructs him to dismantle and remove R-12s missiles.

Malinovsky instructs Pliev to send the ship “Alexandrovsk” accompanied by steamship “Bratsk” to the Soviet Union.

Malinovsky prohibits the use of nuclear weapons without instructions from Moscow.

Malinovsky demands that Soviet Forces in Cuba stop deployment of R-12 and R-14 missiles to prevent aggravation of the United Nations.
