The US sent a nuclear submarine to Cuba amid the visit of Russian ships

A US submarine has arrived in the Gulf of Cuba. Earlier, Russian warships arrived on the island for training.

A US Navy submarine has arrived at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba in a show of force following a visit to the island by Russian ships, ABC News reports.

The nuclear fast attack submarine USS Helena entered the waters near the American base in Cuba on June 13.

Other US ships monitor and monitor Russian exercises.

USM previously reported that the United States reacted to the visit of Russian warships to Cuba.

We will remind, for the first time since 2016, a ship of the Canadian Navy will call at the Cuban port. The visit will take place against the background of the increased presence of the fleet of the Russian Federation in the Caribbean.

The day before, Russia sent its ships to Cuba. In particular, the frigate “Admiral Gorshkov” and the nuclear submarine “Kazan” went to the island. The Russian Federation plans to hold large-scale exercises in the Caribbean. The USA interprets them as a response to American support for Ukraine.
