WASHINGTON—The United States is “working to disrupt” Beijing’s ongoing efforts to expand its presence in Cuba, the State Department has told The Epoch Times.

“Broadly, we are monitoring and responding to any PRC [People’s Republic of China] attempts to expand its military or security presence around the world, and we watch how potential PRC actions may impact the United States,” the department’s principal deputy spokesperson, Vedant Patel, told The Epoch Times in a press briefing.
