In a surprising admission, a Biden administration official revealed that China
has been conducting long-term spying operations on the United States from Cuba.
This revelation came after the administration initially denied a Wall Street
Journal report alleging a recent agreement between China and Cuba for electronic
eavesdropping.
The official stated that China had established a listening post in Cuba years
ago, which was upgraded in 2019. The administration acknowledged inheriting this
problem and emphasized their efforts to address the issue, engaging with
governments considering hosting Chinese bases and slowing down China's progress.
While concerns remain, the administration vows to continue disrupting China's
activities in Cuba. This revelation raises questions about the administration's
handling of provocative moves by China as they pursue diplomatic talks between
the two nations. |
