Washington is afraid that Cuba will transfer to Guantanamo Russia

39
After the restoration of diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba, interest in the Guantanamo base again arose. Havana insists on returning the base. In this regard, the director of the American Institute of Cuban Studies Jamie Suchliki expressed concerns that after returning the base could be transferred to the Cubans of Russia, the newspaper writes Look.



“The legal status of Guantanamo is impeccable, as are all the treaties that the US federal government concluded with indigenous tribes since the time of the Act of the Expropriation of Indians from 1885 of the Year,” the author notes. “This impeccability is in the uncomplicated simplicity of the text, which the natives, by definition, should understand literally:“ Guantanamo is acquired by the United States for an indefinite lease ”(that is, forever) for the 2000 peso in the United States gold currency a year.” In 1934, the payment amount was raised to 1300 dollars.

According to the author, "Cuba will never get Guantanamo back," and "talks about the transfer of the object to Russia are generally from the realm of fantasy." Russia simply does not need it.

“No this is not a base for submarines, there is no adequate port, docks, supply system, and you can refuel in Venezuela,” the newspaper writes. - And why is there a submarine base? To cover them from Florida or just blocked when leaving Cuba? Repeat Khrushchev's mistakes and pull out an offensive weapon nobody is going to the "backyard" of the USA. This is not consistent with the concepts of modern warfare, nor the strategy of Russia, written on paper. ”

In general, the number of propaganda "horror stories" on the subject of "the Russian threat" has recently increased at times. This threat has become so multivariate that it became difficult to show it on the world map. In addition to Russia's hypothetical seizure of foreign territories, the press is frightening the public with Russian hypersonic rockets, murderer satellites, new maritime systems ... and now Guantanamo has been added.

“It is noteworthy that all these threats are of a“ strategic nature ”understandable to the US military-industrial complex. The production of “Almaty” on mass production doesn’t bother them - these are European problems, but the two bombers that fly up to California are the daily broadcasts of all the major TV channels of federal coverage, ”the author concludes.

    And they are rightly afraid ... Cuba has the right to allow the deployment of troops of friendly states on its territory just like any other sovereign state. Such a base, if it is located, can slightly sober up the hot State Department heads.

      Cuba has the right to allow the deployment of troops of friendly states on its territory just like any other sovereign state.

      Judging by the fact that the US Embassy has opened in Cuba, Cuba will soon cease to be a sovereign state. And at the same time, it will lose the right to decide not only questions about the deployment of foreign troops, but also to decide something at all. Examples - whole Latin America. And now also Europe.

    It’s ridiculous. In the 2002 year, they just left their military base in Cuba, and now for no reason we will take an American? Speech about the center in Lourdes.

    Since 2004, due to the deterioration of Russian-American relations, the Russian leadership has been considering the possibility of restoring the Russian base in Lourdes. At the beginning of 2014, negotiations with Cuba on this subject intensified [1].

    In July 2014, according to several media reports, during the visit of Russian President V. Putin to Cuba, an agreement was reached in principle on the resumption of the activities of the [1] [7] center. However, V. Putin himself denied the information about such an agreement, stressing that “we are able to solve the problems in the field of defense capability without this component”

    America measures everything by its standards. If they are shouting about peace and are preparing to fight with Russia (they have been preparing for it since April of the 1945!), This does not mean that someone will repeat their stupid things and surround America with the same ring as they are in Russia. Although, of course, following American logic, the Russian base in Cuba would be very useful for monitoring, for example, the Taliban or ISIS (this is about the Polish-American elements of missile defense, aimed, according to the US, to Iran).

    Because: "Guantanamo is acquired by the United States on an indefinite lease" (that is, forever) for 2000 pesos in the gold currency of the United States per year. "
    But about the fact that Russia immediately rushes to occupy this American heritage - this is an unconditional fake (lies, if in Russian and in an accessible language). Nobody is going to push incredible money there for an incomprehensible military-political weight. And let them continue to torture the Taliban and others like them there. Bardak Obamych, by the way, in the pre-election campaign threatened to close this nest of lawlessness, and they gave a black man a look on his hands so that he would not go to adult uncles.

      The one who wrote this is clearly at odds with history and common sense. negative The agreement was concluded not with the "indigenous tribes" which by that time were simply exterminated by the Spaniards, but with the then government of Cuba. The current status of the base is regulated contract of 1934 yearconcluded after a series of coups d'etat in Cuba in the early 1930's. Americans categorically do not intend to return the base to Cuba.

      Fuel oil, diesel fuel and everything you need in Guantanamo are regularly delivered by tankers and supply vessels. There is nothing complicated about it. request Waste products and other wastes are simply dumped into the sea. For example, until recently, this was done in Vladivostok, and this city is much larger in population of the base in Guantanamo.
