Cuba has state of the art facilities that could create biological weapons, has scientists that trained in the former USSR, and has a forty year grudge against the U.S. It also could target the U.S. with medium range missiles, as opposed to intercontinental ones.

Bolton stated, "The United States believes that Cuba has at least a limited offensive biological warfare research and development effort. Cuba has provided dual-use biotechnology to other rogue states."1 These remarks repeat, word for word, allegations made in congressional testimony in March by Carl Ford, undersecretary of state for intelligence and research. 2

Not one that has a worldwide resolution against it to disarm and allow certification of disarmament.
