Cuba has denied reports that it has agreed to host a Chinese intelligence-gathering facility capable of spying on the United States. CBS News confirmed the reports, which suggested Beijing would pay billions of dollars for the facility, which would be positioned 100 miles from the Florida coast. The move would reportedly inflame tensions between China and the US, which have been strained since February, when the US military shot down a Chinese surveillance balloon. US lawmakers have called on the Biden administration to intervene and prevent the establishment of the facility.
