Would the United States accept the presence of Russian military bases on its borders? As a matter of fact, it did not accept them even 1,500 miles from its borders. In 1983, President Reagan ordered the invasion of Grenada due to concerns that the construction of an airport by Cubans could potentially be utilized by Soviet forces.

Too bad you aren't familiar with US history. In case you didn't know there is a country called Cuba 90 miles from Florida.

It was full of Russians, and their military assets from about 1960 until the Russians began to lack enough money to support Cuba, and they reduced their military assets in Cuba.
