Seems like coincidental timing for the Americans to be getting Cuba on-side... Just sayin'...

Russia now though is as ideologically distant from Cuba as the USA is. And the agreement concluded the other day was the product of 18 months of secret negotiations. It's a sensible and long overdue move imo, decades of tensions and attempts to freeze Cuba out of the international community don't seem to have borne too much fruit.
