China reportedly reached an agreement with Cuba to allow them to create an electronic eavesdropping facility on the Caribbean island, which is located about 100 miles south of Florida, as tensions between Beijing and Washington have been rising dramatically over the past several months.
The Cuban facility would allow Chinese intelligence officials to monitor U.S. ship traffic and to listen to electronic communications throughout the southeastern United States, according to U.S. officials with knowledge of highly classified intelligence, The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.
China reached an agreement in principle to pay several billion dollars to the impoverished Marxist-Leninist nation of Cuba, officials familiar with the matter also said.

Bribes come first, blackmail follows when the money stops.
And, of course, China Joe plans quickly to send Secretary of State Blinken to Beijing for friendly talks. Joe said last month that there was a "thaw" in the US-China icy relationship.
Is it just me, or is it not really a ‘secret’? I mean, if we are talking about it, how secret can it be?
To me, it is exactly the same. Russia was told there would be no NATO expansion in return for East Germany and then after 10 years, NATO began an exponential expansion right up to the Russian border. Russia warned that Ukes joining NATO was a red line, and he meant it.
Putin warned that NATO expansion was an existential threat -- just like we did in Cuban Missile Crises -- and now the shoe is back on the other foot.
Sure sounds like a double standard to me and most of the world will see it that way. That's why they are moving away from the US as fast as they can get away (BRICS).
Pure hypocrisy!
Monroe Doctrine? Never would have happened under Reagan etc.
China paid Biden for the privilege by giving Biden Crime Family millions of dollars to do whatever they want.
Why, it’s the most well-known secret base in the world!
If you have ever looked at my comments you would have a clue and know I am certainly not for the US being a world policeman and that I believe we should be concentrating on our borders.
Now ask MeganC if she wants the US/NATO to be world policeman and you may be surprised at what you hear.
Have they been spying on us for 60 years?
How secret can it be?
But this time the POTUS is working with them and apparently this is perfectly fine with Congress while the former President is about to get indicted for doing absolutely nothing wrong. Last year I said our government is under enemy occupation and some Freepers said I was going overboard. What about now?
It died under Carter
Another secret spy base?
Let’s see doing away with natural gas in our country, forcing EV cars, trucks, etc. Recent article about banning gas stoves. Now going after furnaces. Make America less energy efficient, blow their infrastructure with all the electric energy needed to run cars, vehicles, trucks, heat homes, etc. Killing off food producing factories, from “fires” and “explosions”.
Why do that when they can just send a slow moving balloon over the US for a week at a time?
Good idea unless he starts crying over lying for please LBJ.
Note, living relations of the Eisenhowers and Nixons are around today.
An Eisenhower , Laura Magdelene Eisenhower, a great granddaughter was on Ancient Aliens in 2017 (The Majestic Twelve) was interviewed about remembering when Ike was taken on a secret trip in 1954 to see the space alien craft wreckage and possibly the corpse. He may have signed a treaty about interactions with aliens who wanted to learn about the inner workings of the human body. No one would care if a little girl knew it was a lie her grandpa was going to some mundane conference or something. She vividly recalled him being hustled away on the secret trip.
Why? They already have plenty of spies in CONgress and every university in the country.
And the Biden Corrupto-Currency-Crime-Cabal!
