    It will all end in a deal, like Venezuela. They'll give her a fishing rod, and Donya will say she won. In Venezuela, PDsVA isn't privatized, gasoline is $0,03, and the acting president of Venezuela is negotiating on equal terms with the US. A couple of days ago, she was sitting at the head of the table during delegation talks. Things will settle down. In Cuba, Canadian investments in the tourism industry will come under US control. laughing But there may be nuances. The Cuban power structure is somewhat different from Venezuela's. It's more like Iran's. Cubans just want food and freedom, without the Americans. Cuban media is available in Russia.

      Will Cubans really forgive those who died during Maduro's capture?

    Why didn't the Cubans land him?
    Or, as in the case of Crimea, was he flying in neutral waters?

    During the Cuban Missile Crisis, American U-2s also flew over Cuba, until on October 27, 1962, one of them was shot down by a Soviet S-75 Desna air defense system over Cuba at an altitude of 21 kilometers.

    There was no continuation in the form of a nuclear war.

    Now, after the declassification of many documents, had such a thing happened, the USSR would have lost, being unprepared. But that's how it turned out.

      What nuclear war can there be over a UAV, especially one shot down in foreign airspace?

    One question: Is Cuba Venezuela or Iran? What's the prognosis? I think Venezuela.
