Havana, May 7th. - Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez reiterated that the accusations alluding to the alleged presence of Chinese military forces in the Antillean country are unfounded.
According to the X social network, thinking tanks, press media and anti-Cuban politicians of little credibility - they insist on accusing the Cuban government of hosting Chinese military personnel on the national territory.
They crack down on false accusations about China's non-existent military bases in Cuba, the chancellor denounced.
Rodriguez also pointed out that those who publicize this incrimination are ignorant that the only foreign base in our country is in illegally occupied territory in Guantanamo.
In this way, the head of Cuban diplomacy reacted to the alleged revelation of satellite images that, according to U.S. experts, demonstrate the expansion of Chinese military installations in Cuba.
On Tuesday, at the House Subcommittee on Maritime and Transportation Security, U.S. lawmakers said the advocacy collaboration between China and the Caribbean nation is concerned.
In addition, Republican Congressman Carlos Giménez, a representative for Florida, said Beijing modernizes and uses espionage facilities to intercept communications from the United States, according to several press reports.
The Cuban authorities have denied the presence of Chinese military bases on their territory on several occasions and disparate scenes in recent years.
In July 2024, the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Carlos Fernández de Cossío, challenged a publication of the Wall Street Journal, according to which there are listening stations on the island at Chinese military bases.
Then, he said the Wall Street Journal, a U.S. newspaper focused on economics and business issues, persisted in that way in launching a Cuba-related campaign of intimidation.
In June 2023, Fernández de Cossío himself described as "completely mendacious and unfounded" a publication of the same newspaper on an alleged agreement of Cuba with China, in military matters, for the installation of a espionage base. (Text and Photo: PL)
