GORDON CHANG: China Is About To Lose Its Cuban Military Bases

Friends of Havana blame the U.S., but the Trump administration had to act before China turned the island into a military bastion.
Declassified intelligence showed that Chinese signals-intelligence collection facilities had been operating in Cuba since at least 2019.
“China and Cuba are negotiating to establish a new joint military training facility on the island, sparking alarm in Washington that it could lead to the stationing of Chinese troops and other security and intelligence operations just 100 miles off Florida’s coast.” —The Wall Street Journal, June 20, 2023.
President Donald Trump acted before the Chinese could base missiles in Cuba.

Cuban society, due to a U.S. naval embargo, is close to collapse.
