Politico quoted an official in the administration of US President Joe Biden as saying that China is spying on the United States from a base in Cuba. The official added that China's espionage efforts are an ongoing concern, and that the U.S.

administration is taking steps to deal with them. The Wall Street Journal reported that China and Cuba had reached a secret agreement to build an electronic eavesdropping facility on the Caribbean island. But the White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby earlier denied the veracity of the report.
