Especially when you consider that China is aggressively moving to buld up its relationship with Cuba right now.[1][2] Russia is attempting to station nuclear bombers in Latin America right now, with Cuba's #1 ally.[3][4][5] All of which is conveniently being ignored by both the article and the skeptics in this thread. Those competitors (and potential enemies) aren't non-existent, they're publicly going to work right now in the backyard of the US. Why the hell else would Russia be attempting to station its bombers so close to the US? It's a response to NATO and the tensions with the US on arms treaties, or just another case of Putin pursuing a copy of the USSR strategy of poking their US enemy in one of the few ways they can.
