The countries' governments have been allies for a long time, but the ongoing situation is raising concerns in China. China opposes the US action, a spokesperson for the State Department said:
China will continue to provide Cuba with as much support and assistance as possible.
The US government has declared that Cuba's rule may be on the verge of collapse. President Donald Trump has warned the Cuban government that it needed to meet him - to avoid a similar situation in Venezuela, which he said involved US military forces capturing President Nicolás Maduro in a deadly assault.
