Cuba gained formal independence
from the U.S. on May 20, 1902,
as the Republic of Cuba.
Under Cuba's new constitution,
the U.S. retained the right to intervene
in Cuban affairs and to supervise its finances
and foreign relations.
Under the Platt Amendment,
the U.S. leased the Guantánamo Bay naval base
from Cuba.
