Earlier, Cuban leader Miguel Díaz-Canel strongly condemned the entry into NATO of new members bordering Russia. "In light of hostile actions by the (NATO) alliance, Cuba is ready to place Russian missiles on its territory, again."
“By Putin’s reasoning, we can now invade Cuba.”
Agree, and hopefully in 5 to 10 years we’ll again have a military capable of doing just that, since we just wasted the one we had trying to drag out the Neocon War in Ukraine.
Khruschev was a clown—the compromise candidate of a divided Politboro.
Putin seized power after leading the KGB and like him or hate him—he is a very serious and intelligent guy.
We are in a lot worse shape than we were in the JFK days—even with JFK’s obvious flaws.
No, I don’t think rockets for Cuba is the way this will go down—better is the establishment of an airbase for bears in Cuba (like they have in Syria) and a Naval base for ships armed with nukes. China has bases in Cuba too. The Island nation needs all the help they can get. The Cubans know we will never invade—no money in that. Good way for Russia to gain a foothold in that part of the world. Haiti is ripe for the picking—a Communist Government might be better than the thing Clinton placed there. Mexico might be ripe for a Communist revolution too after the Cartel corrupto democracy they have.
By Putin’s reasoning, we can now invade Cuba.

OR, Cuba could vote to become a province of the Russian Federation. I think with the US pet Nazi Ukrainians becoming US’s 51st State, Cuba would gladly join the Russian Federation.
Vlad continues to outsmart old vegetable head Biden and his corrupted regime at every move..
I believe this is what is called “escalation”. It never ends well for either party involved.
Thanks to the NeoCons. Wreckers of the former United States.
Watch them also try to assassinate RFK, Jr. for trying to reach a peace/security deal with Russia.
NeoCons don’t get rich off of good deals, only perpetual war.
I was a kid back in 63 but I still remember my dad preparing a shelter in the basement just in case....and my parents discussing if we should go to school that day. My parents promised if anything happen they would come and get us. My eldest brother telling dad if they dropped a bomb the shelter wouldn’t help, my dad looked at him and said, “I can not just do nothing.” Scary times.
When the Chinese and cartels brought the corrupt Bidens they got their money’s worth... now they’re handing out favors to their friends in Russia. How charming democrats pushed China and Russia together.
Kudos on that observation and statement.
The same guy proposed digital currency tied to an identity.
And if Russia conducted the plebiscite, Cuba would vote 98 percent to 2 percent in favor of joining Russia.
wait a minute... is this a 61-year old news flashback?
“The Island nation needs all the help they can get.”
Cuban cigars is one of my hobbies and their cigar production is estimated to be less than half of what it was pre-Covid.
Their economy is a total basket case—a great time for the Russians to “cut a deal”.
I remember the Cuban Missile Crisis as well—as a kid.
My parents just refused to talk about it.
Big.
You all act as though Díaz-Canel is the sovereign leader of a sovereign nation. Not hardly. Havana is chock full of Russians (and Mossad lol).
Díaz-Canel is not "inviting" Russia, he has been told by Putlim to accept arms, in no uncertain terms.
The tell is the freaking Kulakov! Kulakov was a nasty Kossack, a dirty Communist recruit from his very youth. After losing Odessa and bungling Sevastopol in WWII, the rest of his Navy career was one of petty retribution as an enforcer. That's the "message" to Díaz-Canel.
In 63 we ranged in age from 4 to 14 Seven of us so we had varying ranges of understanding..
45-60 minute warhead change in order to make US Missiles in Poland offensive instead of defensive.
Google US Missiles deployed in Eastern Europe....
The US wanted to deploy Missiles in Ukraine and use NATO as cover.
North Korea is going to get a full economic reboot from China-Russia today... plus speculation of intercontinental delivery systems, food, and additional military capabilities to give Seoul a reminder providing artillery systems and ammo wasn’t a good idea.
Corrupt Biden-clan and the Neocons forced the conditions leading to the Ukrainian Conflict.
Biden’s woke Generation-thug has destroyed American foreign policy.
Escalating for negotiation....
Like Nixon and Linebacker II?
It’s probably not going to work. They are better off going to the negotiation table (both Ukraine and Russia) now. Both could come out better off if do it sooner, and actually find mutual respect.
