State Dept alleges Cuba ran a decades-long covert influence and espionage network inside the U.S.
A 100-page State Department report accuses Cuba of a decades-long covert campaign to influence U.S. politics and national security, cultivating activists, spy networks, and ties to American universities and left-wing groups to spread communist ideology and undermine U.S. interests. It cites infiltrations at high government levels and connections to groups such as the Weather Underground and the Black Panthers, while Cuban officials call the claims propaganda and Rubio portrays the report as a clear exposure of Havana’s subversion.
