    Putin to reopen base in Cuba

    http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/...0FL1LZ20140716

    Thought i'd drop this off here before I have to leave for work. What do you think the ramifications will be? Will the US impose those restrictions that they had just removed from Cuba? More sanctions on Russia?

    Try to keep it civil and on topic as much as possible please

    Meanwhile USA does 'Fuck the Cuba', reducing quality of their life with artificial frustration.

    I predict the US will drop sanctions against Cuba. Time to pull them away from Russia.

    This will only be a problem if Moscow starts shipping in nuclear weapons.

    The US has had more than enough years to get on good terms with Cuba.

    I do hope you realize that those bases exist because the host country has asked for them to be there. Its not like we jut move in one day and just start building

    They could do much more with a Submarine, they certainly patrol near the USA and are damn near undetectable unlike the Silo's.
