Answer :
The United States tried to overthrow communist leader Fidel Castro in Cuba.
Answer:
The communist leader that the United States tried to overthrow in Cuba during the early 1960s was Fidel Castro.
Explanation:
Fidel Castro came to power after leading the Cuban Revolution, which triumphed on January 1, 1959, overthrowing the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. He was appointed prime minister on February 27 of the same year by President Manuel Urrutia. He led in 1961 the adoption of Marxism by the revolutionary government, establishing the first socialist state of America.
After a series of expropriations to US owners, the disagreements with the United States led to the economic embargo against Cuba. Since then, his relationship with the United States has been openly antagonistic, which was confirmed after the failed invasion of the Bay of Pigs in 1961, aimed at overthrow him.
