>Кастро даже одно время оскорблённо отсылал чек обратно. Вот так бывает с платой за базы.
Он сначала эти чеки окешивал в банке (сдавал чек и получал наличные),но потом перестал это делать. Об этом много где пишут как разговор о Кубе заxодит:
The United States holds that by cashing the first check received in accordance with said treaty, Castro's government effectively ratified the lease, and cannot unilaterally change its mind after the fact on account of political tensions or ideological differences.
Every year, the U.S. dutifully sends a rent check for Guantanamo to the Cuban government. The 1903 lease, signed by President Theodore Roosevelt, established an annual payment equal in value to a pile of 2,000 small gold coins, worth about $4,000 today. Castro reportedly either sends the checks back or stashes them in a drawer, refusing to cash them.
