    I'm surprised Maris isn't in favor of this move. It could really benefit the Yankees.

    The Russian Federation has fulfilled all terms of the agreement. And even more. I shut down not only the Cuban Lourdes but also Kamran in Vietnam. I shut them down because I gave my word of honor. I, like a man, has kept my word. What have the Americans done? The Americans are not responsible for their own words. It is no secret that in recent years, the U.S. created a buffer zone around Russia, involving in this process not only the countries of Central Europe, but also the Baltic states, Ukraine and the Caucasus. The only response to this could be an asymmetric expansion of the Russian military presence abroad, particularly in Cuba. In Cuba, there are convenient bays for our reconnaissance and warships, a network of the so-called "jump airfields." With the full consent of the Cuban leadership, on May 11 of this year, our country has not only resumed work in the electronic center of Lourdes, but also placed the latest mobile strategic nuclear missiles "Oak" on the island. They did not want to do it the amicable way, now let them deal with this," Putin said.

    Putin spouts a lot of BS to prop up his image. I don't believe most of his schpiel. Cuba has nothing to gain from propping up his agenda but quite a bit to gain from opening up US trade markets

    You maybe onto something. They used to have a good "cattle" agriculture in cuba. With the incorporations of feeding them plutonium, their supplies deteriorated.
