Is very intersting history, and to give you what I think is about from Russian side, is more like to treat Cuba the way USA is treat West Berlin. It is become a status symbol for the USSR like West Berlin is to USA. It is not really of any value to USSR to have Cuba but it is important to show is as big as USA and can protect and defend small region in another part of the world.

You're right! Just like USA wanted it's military base close to USSR then. Likewise, Soviets wanted their military base close to USA.
It all about, you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours! 🙂
