They’re probably fuggin worldwide at this point. Putin is stopping at nothing to turn this into WWIII.
I would imagine due to history that Russia has extremely deep networks of intelligence and military ops occurring constantly in Cuba since the 60s.
Cuba has always used human capital. During the Soviet years they provided military groups internationally, after it is doctors and nurses which they ran out of. The state always makes out.

And what would be your considered opinion on, you know, the subject and content.
I mean, given the historic relations between Cuba and Russia, I can’t say I’m necessarily SURPRISED by it. It would be weirder if it were a country that you wouldn’t commonly associate with Russia, like, I dunno, Belgium or somebody.
