2. I believe I read that Cuba found offshore oil recently
I'd imagine it has something to do with getting Iran to help them with oil production.

4. Oil, and reconnaisance
"Finally, like other nations in the Western Hemisphere, Cuba has become increasingly dependent on Iranian oil for its daily survival. A cash-strapped Castro has already accepted a generous Iranian trade credit line with liberal repayment terms. In return, Castro has agreed to provide Iran with a strategic outpost to gather intelligence on U.S. movements in the region."
