The White House has confirmed the existence of a Chinese spy base in Cuba that isn’t new and predates the current administration, officials said.
“As we’ve communicated over the weekend, this is not a new development that China’s been trying to achieve some intelligence gathering capabilities in Cuba and, frankly, elsewhere in the hemisphere, and that from day one, when we came in, we took this issue seriously,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters on June 12.
