Cuba doesn't really pose the same kind of danger to the imperialists. Yes they remain principled and they try to do all they can in terms of international solidarity against imperialist pressure in Latin America, but given their difficult geographical location they have to do what they can to just survive in the face of the strangling blockade imposed on them.
They aren't sending volunteers over to fight in anti-colonial struggles anymore like they used to back in the day...though there have been a few rumors of Cuban volunteers in Russia's SMO, but if i remember correctly the Cuban government was not very approving of that. And i can understand why since they are probably wary of provoking the US.
The DPRK on the other hand is in a much better position to take hostile action against the imperialists as we have seen with their material support of Russia, supplying them with ammunition of various kinds. This isn't because the Cubans are less revolutionary, but simply because Cuba doesn't have the same military might that DPRK does to defend itself.
And having nuclear weapons also makes a big difference in establishing deterrence...they give you a protective umbrella to act much more confidently against imperialism. Which is why i cannot understand why Iran still hasn't gotten them, they absolutely could if they wanted to and the US and the Zionist entity could not do very much about it at all since Iran is also conventionally powerful.
