The Canadian government, led by Defence Minister Bill Blair, made a calculated decision to send a Canadian naval vessel to Havana, Cuba, where it docked alongside Russian warships. This move, described as 'carefully and fulsomely planned,' aimed to demonstrate Canada's strategic presence in the region. The Russian fleet, which included a nuclear-powered submarine, had been in Havana for a five-day visit, during which one of their ships was open to the public. The visit of the Canadian ship to Cuba, amidst the presence of Russian naval vessels, underscores the complex geopolitical interactions and Canada's active engagement in international maritime diplomacy.
