      I'm imagining the cuban missile crisis, but Kenmedy has dementia and everyone behind him is shouting "if you don't push the button you're a pu$$y bleeding heart"

      china currently has a single foreign military base (djibouti asked them to station troops there to combat piracy), so this is unlikely

          i guess theres a slightly inland base there. China is of course literally their neighbor so its quite different from an overseas base

          and seeing as its slightly secret it cant be that significant

        On top of that, the US has been stationing military in Taiwan, which is a huge escalation. They have absolutely no ground to stand on if China wants to build a base there with the support of the Cuban people.

            Oh they still will be. Hypocrisy has been a fundamental characteristic of the United States of America since the very beginning.

        That didn't stop them from almost causing nuclear armagheddon over a similar situation in the 60s
