From what I read the US were interested in getting both Cuba and the Philippines and the Brits took time in finalizing their plan of purchase of the Philippines since the Madrid Protocol in 1885, what if the Britain did not buy the Philippines and it became a part of the settlement of peace with the United States to end the Spanish-American war since the British defeated the Americans in 1898 for Spain, would Spain retain Cuba and Puerto Rico like in the Present?
