A new Caribbean flashpoint may already be underway

Russian oil shipments are now confirmed to be moving toward Cuba, with at least one delivery likely already completed.

As the Trump administration tightens pressure on Havana, Moscow is stepping in—raising serious questions about enforcement, escalation, and what happens if those ships are stopped.

This isn’t the Cuban Missile Crisis.

But it’s getting uncomfortably close to something we haven’t seen in decades.

I'm assuming you meant Trump administration??   

Last thing Trump  needs right now is to have to deal with Putin's nose in Iran and Cuba.  I don't see a good outcome. Putin is playing cat and mouse .... Secy Rubio has got to be overwhelmed and if the truth be known, I think Trump thought we were going to be out and done with Iran by now.
Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

Be a shame if something happened to those tankers along the way ...

That would be an act of war against Russia??

Maybe Ukraine could do it

Remember who they put delayed-time bombs on those Russian fuel trains heading east, then set them off just when they were in the tunnels?

They should do the same thing with those loaded Russian tankers heading out to Cuba

Ukraine and Russia are already at war anyway
The elimination of the evil Soviet Union was one of the most glorious moments in Human History!!
