A recent U.S. State Department report has identified Cuba as a principal intelligence threat, alleging that Havana managed to infiltrate the highest reaches of American governmental institutions. The document outlines a sophisticated espionage apparatus that remained active for several decades, compromising sensitive data and national security policies.

Officials noted that the depth of the penetration allowed Cuba to gain insights into classified deliberations and maintain long-term surveillance over critical administrative functions.
While the report did not list every individual compromised, it emphasized that the longevity of these operations resulted in significant strategic damage. The findings call for renewed scrutiny of counterintelligence measures to prevent similar state-sponsored infiltrations in the future. Source: U.S. State Department report.
