A former US diplomat who served as ambassador to Bolivia has been charged with working as an agent of the Cuban government for more than 40 years.
Victor Manuel Rocha, 73, is accused of helping Cuba gather intelligence against the US since 1981.
Mr Rocha referred to the US as “the enemy” and claimed his work as a secret agent “strengthened the Revolution”, according to court papers.
It was not immediately clear if he had a lawyer to comment on his behalf.
