"Do not threaten the US": Russia has planned military training in the Caribbean - the media

The ships of the Russian fleet, as expected, will enter the ports of Cuba and Venezuela. The culmination will be worldwide naval training in the fall. The United States expects that Russia will start air and naval training in the Caribbean in the next weeks.

About it reports CBS, citing an unnamed American training official, which will be attended by Russian warships and long-range bombers, will become the first simultaneous air and naval maneuvers that Russia has been conducting in the Caribbean since 2019. The United States interprets them as a response to US support for Ukraine and intensifying US training with NATO allies.

At the same time, the official said, the training has been planned for a while, so it is unlikely that they are a recent partial withdrawal of President Joe Biden's ban on the use of weapons provided by Ukraine against the goals within Russia. According to the administration representative, Russian exercises are not considered as a direct threat to the United States.
