China in Canada and Cuba, looks like you’re slowly surrounding yourself with the very country you are most afraid of. Good job, well deserved

I would rather live in China most days. America used to be a dream. WTF happened.

I really don’t get the point of the embargo at this point. Trump is just upping it a notch by threatening anyone, who dares to trade with Cuba with tariffs. I think Rubio is hoping to orchestrate a regime change, but I am curious about who he is going to plop into place when the state collapses. The Cuban Opposition is more sparse than the Venezuelan Opposition by a good margin.

Oh, yay, now Trump will get his own Cuban Missile Crisis, only over oil.

Seems something like that happened before

Rest of the world stepping in to help.
The US leadership does not understand the value of being a soft power. Instead this ask administration wants to isolate…

Amazing,Its time the world stood up for them . Theyve suffered tremendously and the citizens deserve proper resources!!! They deserve to benefit from greater access to global trade. I know many countries have tried to help as much as they could but its time to lift the embargo! Let them have a country that truly flourishes

Turning Cuba into America’s inverse Taiwan

That seems fair, we sail our fleet through the Taiwan Strait (which I also condone).

China propping up the communist regime to continue enslaving the Cuban people, lovely!

Where will China be obtaining this jet fuel from ?
I doubt it’s coming from China, because that might require transiting that canal across Panama. Perhaps China is going to buy it from Mexico, then ship it across the Gulf of Mexico to Cuba.

Great-power politics is reciprocal: you project power near others, they look for leverage near you.

Russia loves Trump because he destabilizes the West, China loves Trump because they get to pick up every bit of soft power that once belonged to the US

So if China sends a tanker to Cuba is the US going to try and stop it?
That could lead to some very interesting times, and not in a good way.

Every single time a dictator or authoritarian regime is in trouble, you will see China sending aid immediately. From many African countries to Russia, Iran, Venezuela, to now Cuba.
Go and actually learn something about the people in those countries. They hate their corrupted governments and really want some positive changes but are overpowered. What China does to these countries is extremely selfish, prolonging the suffering of the people for its own geopolitical security.
China may not have hands-on killing the people in those countries but definitely has lots of blood on its hand enabling invasions and suppressions.
That is the “new world order” many idiots are so excited about.

China & Cuba have a long lasting relationship. Do you think the Chinese want to be constantly bailing them out? The Chinese just restructured Cuba’s debt & gave 100M in 2022. This isn’t the win the comments think it is for China

China really spreading that soft power far and wide

Problem I see is distance.
China would have to use the Panama Channel or go around the globe to get there.
Another excuse for the US to try take ownership of the channel.

So I guess China sending thoughts and prayers is news worthy now. Cause no where in the article does it say anything about China giving Cuba oil, or anything, it just says support.

Irresistible force meets immovable object. Genuinely curious how far Trump’s admin would go if faced with a fleet like China’s that can defend itself. One bully country facing another. I sincerely think China is the more crazy of the two and Trump is known as a coward bully, but who knows?

North Korea has nukes pointed at us and has stated they will use them. Why are we not bombing the shit out of them . I know dumb question but the point is we always attack some weak country that is no threat to us.

China is gonna do jack shit. No chance they’re sailing a slow ass tanker with a giant middle finger flag in the front yard of the US.
You people are out of your minds.
Wizywig on
Sigh, remember that time when the US was in a conflict and that country aligned with cuba and suddenly they had a staging ground for missiles?
I think Trump wants part 2 of that.
Maybe we’ll even give it a catchy name like the Cuban Missile Crisis or something. After all they wanna call out to the good ol’ days eh?
