BBC Mundo reports on espionage in Latin America and Cuba’s role in it.
And of course there is Cuba.
“Both China and Russia’s services have a close relationship with the intelligence community there in an advisory role,” says Mr [Robert] Munks of Jane’s Intelligence Review.
Experts say this “advisory role” that Cuba has with Russia and China is spreading to other parts of Latin America.
“Havana is currently exporting the biggest number of spies in the region to its close ally Venezuela,” says Mr Munks.
Mr [Nigel] Inkster of the International Institute for Strategic Studies believes this could have serious implications.
“It could eventually have an impact on how the government deals with the Venezuelan opposition,” he says.
