    Russia has been capitalist for a long time, but not imperialist. Cuba is grown up now. Both are helping. What are they supposed to do, say: do this and that? Go in and take over and run things? Cuba is sovereign. This is a Cuban issue for Cuban people.

    Yes what the US does, did is slimey af. And if China or Russia went in telling Cuba they have to do this or that to get assistance, that’s… imperialism.

      Pass through the US imposed oil blockade and tell the US to go shove it instead of abiding by US imperialist terms.

      Will it come at costs to their own countries? Certainly. But if everyone just thinks of themselves the US will divide and conquer the whole world with ease. First was Venezuela. Now Cuba.

        Do you imagine Cuba has no say in this? Has it occurred to you maybe Cuba doesn’t want this?
