According to reports, China and Cuba reached an agreement allowing China to establish an electronic eavesdropping facility on the island, less than 100 miles from Florida. 

U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Vice Chair Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Chair Mark R. Warner (D-VA) released a joint statement urging the Biden Administration to take steps to prevent Chinese intelligence services from establishing such a presence.  

  • "We are deeply disturbed by reports that Havana and Beijing are working together to target the United States and our people. The United States must respond to China’s ongoing and brazen attacks on our nation’s security.  We must be clear that it would be unacceptable for China to establish an intelligence facility within 100 miles of Florida and the United States, in an area also populated with key military installations and extensive maritime traffic. We urge the Biden administration to take steps to prevent this serious threat to our national security and sovereignty.” — Senators Rubio and Warner
RUBIO Y WARNER SOBRE INFORMES DE CENTRO DE ESPÍA CHINO EN CUBA

Según informes, China y Cuba llegaron a un acuerdo que permite a China establecer una instalación en la isla, a menos de 100 millas de Florida.

El vicepresidente del Comité Selecto de Inteligencia del Senado de EE.UU. Marco Rubio (R-FL) y el presidente del Comité Mark R. Warner (D-VA) emitieron una declaración conjunta instando a la Administración Biden a tomar medidas para evitar que los servicios de inteligencia chinos establezcan tal presencia.

  • “Estamos profundamente perturbados por los informes que La Habana y Pekín están trabajando juntos para atacar a EE.UU. y a nuestros ciudadanos. EE.UU. debe responder a los continuos ataques por parte de China contra nuestra seguridad nacional. Debemos estar claros que sería inaceptable que China establezca una instalación de inteligencia a 100 millas de Florida y de los EE.UU., en un área que también está poblada por instalaciones militares claves y un extenso tráfico marítimo. Instamos a la Administración Biden a tomar medidas para prevenir esta grave amenaza a nuestra seguridad y soberanía nacional”.— Senadores Rubio y Warner
