Cuba was, and is run, by a Communist government that used to have direct ties to the Soviet Union, until the Soviet Union gave up on Communism in the 1960s'. In the 1962, Cuba threatened the USA with nuclear missiles, given to them from the Russians. The USA told Russia to pull the nuclear missiles out of Cuba, or else! The Russians blinked, and took the missiles out of Cuba. The USA then took Our missiles out of Turkey. To be honest, before Fidel Castro installed a Communist government in Cuba, the government of Cuba was run by a corrupt dictator named Batista. In many ways, life in Cuba is better under Castro than it was under Batista. Cuba was not a great place to live when the government was corrupt & bought and sold to the highest bidder under Batista. With a leader like Batista, it is little wonder that Fidel Castro got the support of many of the Cuban people.

∙ 6y agoIn the 1920’s Cuba became an enclave for the mob. They ran the gambling, booze, and prostitution in Cuba. It was an open society out of US law, but close enough to Florida to reach it in a fast boat or plane. The government has always been interested in it because it is so close to US coastline. The take over by Castro and it becoming a communist Dictatorship proved that it was an important place in the sphere of influence for the United States.
