Interesting, I feel like Cuba has some thoughts on this being done on Cuban soil, has any one asked the Cuban government about this yet?
Edit: this is ment to be read sarcastically if that was not clear
They have never supported the existence of guantanamo. Its an illegally occupied piece of land that the US "pays" Cuba like 500$ a month for and Cuba refuses the payments. The US forced Cuba to "rent" it to them after the spanish american war if i remember correctly.
Yes, and because the deal was made with the US puppet Cuba Republic, the deal should have been renegotiated after the revolution, but the US refuses to. They are illegally occupying this territory. Fun fact: you can open it on google maps and none of it is blurred.
I mean the rent is also suposed to be in gold, according to the treaty that Cuba cancled but the US pays in Check that Cuba is not allowed to cash because of the Sanctions the US places on Cuba.
The US government writing bad checks is just so on brand.
I think they've been pretty clear about it
I mean I am not even sure that if Cuba wanted to (and they rightfully do not want to) they would be able to due to the sanctions the US has on them. so the US is just sending worthless peices of paper, after the host nation has demanded that they leave under international law.
Rules based order my ass
