China's Secret Spy Base in Cuba Confirmed by Biden Administration

TL;DR Summary
A Chinese spy base in Cuba has been operational since 2019 or earlier, according to a Biden administration official. The base could intercept electronic signals from nearby US military and commercial buildings. The existence of the agreement to build the base has prompted a forceful response from Capitol Hill. The Biden administration has been working to counter China's continued efforts to gain a foothold in the region and elsewhere, chiefly by engaging diplomatically with nations that China was pursuing as potential hosts for such bases.
