Russian Government Proposes Cold War Cuba Influence

August 5th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Russia Government

Russia government’s Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has announced a calling for Russia to regain its influence over Cuba to that stood during the cold war according to AP.

The statement by Putin and the Russian government is likely in retaliation to the US announcement to development missile-defense in the Czech Republic and Poland.

While likely just heavy Russian government rhetoric, the intent is still chilling should the US move more protectionists as its economy continues to drag.

    I think that it won’t be a very good thing for the russias to get that closely involved with the cubas again because we had the cold war already and we know how that went so if it comes around again and we belive that history is repeating itself; especially with a castro in office still it just wont be good. Kennedy is no longer in office(RIP) and i just don’t think that OBAMA!!! will take it the same way && i hope not because it isn’t something to wait on i think that we would take action.
