      China should throw their dick around if the US starts making any moves towards Cuba, just as the US does all the time with China and Taiwan.

      Amerikkka has ships, carriers, airplanes, hell, even bases - all around the South China Sea just about 365 days out of the year.

      Could you imagine China sends one warship to the Caribbean for a couple of days until the US backs down? They'd all be calling it an outrageous act of aggression.

      Tbh, I won't be getting my hopes up too much about China backing Cuba. They are almost non-interventionist to a fault.

        Super hard to find sources right now, but Cuban-chinese relations have been happening for a long time. They had a hiatus during the soviet-signo split but since the 90's they've been providing each other with resources.

        There's also a lot of interesting cultural exchanges between Cuba and China.

          Thanks comrade, I don’t know too much about Cuba and less about China so l’ll look into it more. Hopefully I can find some good source in Spanish or something. :fidel-salute:

            Just google around and avoid big spooky headlines and it'll be fine. I wish I could provide more but I'm half in the bag and working on an article in the other tab.
