LOL. If this were Obama he would have sent Vlad a plane load of cash to help with the construction.

This is Newsweek colluding with agents of the Russian government to influence an election.

And they might have gotten away with it too, if a significant number of middling teenagers or adults bothered to read their pamphlet.

The thing about Russians is that just when you think they’ll finally behave, for a change, they correct your kumbaya daydreams.

To: everyone

Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev has lashed out at American plans to withdraw from the crucial INF Treaty that he signed with Ronald Reagan 30 years ago. It means a new arms race is on, he says, and Russia must not give up.

The Russians just sank their own and only aircraft carrier. I guess they are in the market for some islands.

We have Kennedy, Dean Rusk and a few others to thank for leaving a communist country in our backyard with a promise of no invasion.

Khrushchev had to be laughing all the way back to the Kremlin over that deal.

"In order to strengthen our military presence in Cuba, we need at least the consent of the Cuban government. After all, this question is more political than military, and today, it’s probably premature to talk about any specific measures in response to a possible U.S. withdrawal from INF," Shamanov told the Interfax news agency.

Must be taking lessons from Mitt Romney about making statements that are so conditional as to be meaningless.

Having a strong military is expensive.

Does Russian have the money to actually be a threat? Didn’t their single Air Craft Carrier sink while in dry dock?

Even maintaining Nuclear weapons is an expensive proposition. Just “building” a nuclear bomb is not the end of it. They need constant maintenance. Expensive.

Setting up a base in Cuba, why? To threaten the US? Well they would get one shot and then be wiped out. Does Cuba really want to go down that road again. President Trump has had a habit of ending treaties that are bad for the US. At the end of the last Cuba Missile crisis part of the deal was to leave Cuba alone. If the Russian moved back in and started building bases then that puts the end of any treaty.

And so it goes.

The old Soviet Union collapse because it could not spend as much on defense as the US. Does a smaller Russia have a better economy then the entire Soviet Empire. If so, go for it. See you at the check out stand when the bill comes due.

As usual this is just my simple opinion and as always I may be wrong or misinformed

Heh. Cuba under the microscope on one side, Russia’s fake weapons and bases around Moscow on the other side,... Looks like fun in the near future. Anyone interested in Siberian real estate?
