Moscow. January 27. INTERFAX - Cuba and Venezuela are seeking to normalize relations with the United States, therefore, the deployment of Russian military infrastructure on their territory is out of the question, said Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev.

"Cuba and Venezuela are countries close to us, our partners, countries that conduct an independent foreign policy. But these are absolutely sovereign countries. We cannot place anything with them, even if it was, for example, as it was in Cuba, simply because it should be consistent with their geopolitical positioning, with their own national interests," he said in an interview with a number of Russian media, including Interfax, answering the relevant question.

According to Medvedev, "Cuba and Venezuela are striving to get out of isolation, to a certain extent restore normal relations with the United States of America, so there can be no question of putting something up or creating some kind of base, as was done in the Soviet period, when we had a single military infrastructure with a number of countries based on a single ideology."

Answering the question of what kind of military infrastructure and weapons Russia can deploy in these countries if they ask, Medvedev said that he believes "it is not very right to talk about this topic at all now, because this, as a rule, immediately creates very significant tensions in the economic sphere at least."
