Russia stated on Thursday that the US should not be alarmed by Russian ships stationed in Cuba, but that Moscow had shown signs of political deference and that it had only noticed when the army or navy started moving.
A Russian military fleet and a nuclear-powered submarine churned into Havana harbor on Wednesday, a stopover that the US and Cuba claimed posed no threat but which was widely accepted as a Russian show of force.
US NSA Jake Sullivan stated that the US would be watchful if there was no proof that Russia had flown any rockets to Cuba. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, who was questioned about alleged reluctance in Washington over the possibility that Russia might appoint military officers to Cuba or even establish a military base there, said quite tasks were frequent. ” So we do n’t see any reason to worry”. When asked what sign Moscow was sending, a spokesperson for the foreign ministry responded,” Why merely signs reaching the West are coming from our army and navy?”
