Four Russian warships including a nuclear submarine have reached Cuba, just 200 miles off the coast of Florida, ahead of a planned military exercise in the Atlantic.

The fleet — made up of a frigate, a nuclear-powered submarine, an oil tanker and a rescue tug — arrived in Havana Bay on Wednesday, welcomed by a 21-cannon salute from Cuba.

I hear the Chinese will soon follow suit. Their war plan is going exactly the way they panned out. Not only will they be near our coastal waters, but they also have military age men boots on the ground already in our soil. I wonder if the woke generals are shaking in their high heel 👠 shoes in the pentagon as they see what’s developing. This is the legacy that we are leaving our children and grandchildren. Shame on us!

It really does make a difference to millions of poor people around the world when a Democrat President is in office.

they get poorer and deader.

Russian Yasen-Class Nuclear Submarine “Kazan” Along With 3 Warships Arrive in Havana, Cuba

June 12, 2024 | Sundance | 107 Comments

Today, June 12th, is Russia Day, a national holiday in the Russian federation.  The symbolism of the intentionally timed events happening today seems to be lost on most western media.

A Russian Yasen-class nuclear submarine named “Kazan” arrived in Havana, Cuba today after piloting through the Florida straits.  Watching a massive nuclear submarine sail into Havana is something extraordinary considering all the provocations taking place between the USA and Russia surrounding the conflict in Ukraine.

Additionally, in a counteraction to provide clarity to the intents and economic purposes of the Biden administration (DoS, CIA and IC), today the Treasury Dept announces new 2nd round sanctions against Russia.   However, in comparative terms, the physical appearance of a nuclear-powered Russian submarine and a set of accompanying warships carrying hypersonic cruise missiles approximately 30 miles from the USA mainland, is a little more dramatic than western saber rattling about sanctioning two Russian banks, Sberbank and VTB.

The Russian submarine fleet, and specifically the Yasen-class submarine group, is the tip of the spear against any military force the USA might choose to deploy in Eastern Europe.  Russian President Vladimir Putin is essentially signaling the people behind Joe Biden that he is willing to participate in the provocation approach.

The USA provoked Russia by moving NATO ever closer, including inside Ukraine.  Now we see Russia provoking NATO by moving a nuclear capable fleet into position just a few miles from the USA coast.  This follows the recent EU election where one of the key messages from the crushing of the pro-war leftists, was an EU citizenry rebuking the possibility of war with Russia.

The EU populists know Ukraine is a proxy fight driven by the United States and they do not want to participate.  The European Union leadership wants war and leftist policy, the European Union citizens want peace and increased national sovereignty.  The two EU political preferences are diametrically in conflict.

NATO and the proverbial western financial system (WEF group) want to block Russia, China, Iran and the growing economies from impeding with their carbon-trading schemes.  The dollar-based digital currency is the largest operational hurdle in the process of creating a system of control based on energy use.

Digital identities and digital currencies are the predicate for digital control of the population.  Thus, if you chase the Russian sanctions to their origination point, the motive you will find was/is essentially “the west” building a wall around the dollar-based global trade and finance system.  Conflict with Russia set up the justification.

Yes, that is correct; we are heading straight into another banker’s war.

This isn’t the Soviet Navy.

The Soviet Navy didn't survive the Cold War.

[ansel12]

Not all along Russia’s borders, remember the 830 miles of new border Putin delivered to us.

[McGruff]

I’d like to see one of these subs pop up off the Delaware coast some weekend. Could lead to another poopie pants incident.

[ansel12]

It is very difficult for some European countries to not be on the Russian border, while others are close to it.

[MinorityRepublican]

The Soviet Navy didn't survive the Cold War.

Nope. Now it appears that the Russians are too corrupt to rebuild their navy.

[cymbeline]

We probably have hundreds of warships and planes surrounding those countries over there.

Obama: The '80s called, they want their foreign policy back

MSM:...LOL, take that rethuglicans...

Now?...

MSM: Russia! Russia! Russia! "Emergency! Emergency! Everyone to get from street!"

Mika/BSNBC..."Trump is trying to tell people how/what to think...that's OUR job!"

[aMorePerfectUnion]

…but Europe has many countries to choose from. They chose the border.

OK. Russia chose Cuba.

[steve86]

“We probably have hundreds of warships and planes surrounding those countries over there.”

Actually requires only 4 or 5 (and satellites).

The new Monroesky Doctrine

[Gene Eric]

And also imported 10 of thousands of military age males. What’s the plan, to overthrow the US?

[ansel12]

Many countries to choose from? Those are their own countries and they fear the threat of Russia and seek peace and stability.

Castro and Russia united to export trouble to areas that are relatively stable, to destabilize and bring war to places that didn’t and don’t have it.

Hope they're enjoying the weather...

[VastRWCon]

Tampa? You must mean Miami.

[Gunslingr3]

Absolutely guarantee that there are not Russian boomers in the Gulf of Mexico.

They stay in the White Sea and Barents Sea, to stay under as much ASW protection as possible. The Russians sent a destroyer, an oiler, a tug and a submarine. These are the ‘four warships’ the Russians trust sending across the Atlantic and not having to tow home.

[elpadre]

Well, on the positive side, at least our people have the opportunity to inspect the ships close at hand.

If our intelligence people don’t have Cuba covered like a blanket, shame on us!!
