This very thread is about Russia sending troops to Cuba. Russian and Chinese government support for Venezuela is also well known.

Russia sells military equipment to Cuba. In this regard, Cuba supports Russia, much the same way we say that one supports local businesses by shopping there.
This support is then confined to a mutually beneficial arrangement, as capitalism puts it.
Meanwhile, the USA not only sells military equipment, but also gives it away for free, pays for death squads, trained torturers, deploys troops, and openly justified dictatorships.

Sure, let us accept that Venezuela is a dictatorship for doing what Trump did, ignore the separation of powers as check against autocracy.
Then we are still put in a position of compare and contrast:
Russia parked a few planes.
The USA meanwhile deliberately hid information about a coup against democracy in Venezuela, as well as all the other atrocities previously mentioned.

The countries that have recently deployed military against protesters in the Americas are Chile, Colombia, and the USA.
While there is evidence of police brutality against some of the protesters during the recent nationwide protests in Cuba, there is no evidence of military deployment. Even western and anyi-Cuban media does not seem to show any.
