US submarine pulls into Guantanamo Bay a day after Russian warships arrive in Cuba
A U.S. Navy submarine has pulled into Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in a show of force as a fleet of Russian warships gather for planned military exercises in the Caribbean.
A U.S. Navy submarine has arrived in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in a show of force as a fleet of Russian warships gather for planned military exercises in the Caribbean.
U.S. Southern Command said the USS Helena, a nuclear-powered fast attack submarine, pulled into the waters near the U.S. base in Cuba on Thursday, just a day after a Russian frigate, a nuclear-powered submarine, an oil tanker and a rescue tug crossed into Havana Bay after drills in the Atlantic Ocean.
The stop is part of a “routine port visit” as the submarine travels through Southern Command’s region, it said in a social media post.
Other U.S. ships also have been tracking and monitoring the Russian drills, which Pentagon officials say do not represent a threat to the United States.
You're viewing part of a thread.
You should maybe read up on Haitian independence...
So you are saying a U.S. naval base at the ass-end of Cuba is the same as human enslavement?
Look back at your original comment and come back. Read carefully, like they taught you in primary school.
Okay, this was my original comment:
Because of a 1903 lease agreement with no end date which the post-revolutionary government has not gone back on so far. They protest it, but they have yet to actually say the terms have changed. And they also have a backlog of U.S. money waiting for them when they wish to renegotiate. Don’t underestimate the PR boost having a U.S. naval base on Cuban soil gives to the Cuban government the same way having North Korea and South Korea share a border is good propaganda for both countries.

Now- are you saying a U.S. naval base at the ass-end of Cuba is the same as human enslavement?
Good, now read what Castro actually said on the issue (when he wasn't busy being assassinated by the CIA).
Are you going to continue to troll and violate civility rules or are you going to answer my question?
If you refuse to read what Castro actually said, that's hardly my problem.
I'm not asking about Castro, I'm asking about you: are you saying a U.S. naval base at the ass-end of Cuba is the same as human enslavement?
It's a yes or no question and you can't seem to answer. Are you trolling?
Are you? You don't seem to be listening.
I'll take that as a yes and act accordingly as a moderator.
