Among the cases mentioned are the Montoneros in Argentina, the Tupamaros in Uruguay, the Colombian ELN, and the Sandinista National Liberation Front in Nicaragua, as well as operations linked to Venezuela and other Latin American countries.
The document states that the Cuban regime has exported the revolution for more than six decades through intelligence operations, support for guerrillas, and political influence in Latin America and the United States

The report also dedicates an extensive chapter to Cuban intelligence operations. It claims that the Intelligence Directorate (DI) developed a strategy of infiltration in government agencies, universities, and other U.S. institutions over decades through the ideological recruitment of long-term agents.
According to the document, this structure combined espionage tasks with political influence and propaganda campaigns, using academic organizations and social movements to expand the international presence of the Cuban regime.
The Department of State also dedicates a section to the relationship between Cuba and Venezuela following Hugo Chávez's rise to power in 1999. The report states that Havana gained decisive influence over various Venezuelan institutions through cooperation agreements, intelligence and security advice, and personnel exchanges, thus consolidating a strategic alliance that strengthened the regional projection of the Cuban regime.
The document concludes that the networks of influence, intelligence, and cooperation promoted by Cuba during the Cold War evolved over time and continue to have effects on regional and international politics.
The U.S. Department of State published an extensive report of over 100 pages accusing the Cuban regime of having built, over more than six decades, a sophisticated international network of espionage, political subversion, and exportation of the communist revolution. The document claims that Havana developed a strategy aimed at infiltrating U.S. institutions, supporting revolutionary movements, and consolidating a structure of ideological influence in Latin America and other regions of the world.
According to the report, the exportation of the revolution was one of the pillars of the foreign policy of the regime established by Fidel Castro in 1959. Over decades, Cuba is said to have perfected a model based on intelligence operations, propaganda, training of political cadres, and logistical support to revolutionary organizations in various countries.
The report states that the Cuban regime developed a permanent structure of espionage and political influence aimed at weakening the position of the United States and expanding the revolutionary model in the Western Hemisphere.
The authors assert that Havana managed to establish itself as the main ideological center of a new revolutionary left, even differentiating itself from the Soviet model and promoting a doctrine based on anti-imperialism and the so-called "Third World."
One of the central sections of the document reviews the support that, according to the Department of State, the Cuban regime provided to armed organizations in various countries in the region.
