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.

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.
