Donald Trump menace de s’emparer de Cuba, le président Miguel Diaz-Canel promet une «résistance indestructible»
On Monday, the US president said he "believes" he "will have the honor of taking Cuba," without specifying exactly what he meant. He also spoke of "liberating" it.
Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel vowed on Tuesday to "indestructible resistance" in the face of Donald Trump's threats to seize the communist island. "Faced with the worst-case scenario, Cuba is certain of one thing: any external aggressor will encounter indestructible resistance," the president declared on X.
On Monday, Donald Trump said he "believes" he will "have the honor of taking Cuba," without specifying exactly what he meant. He also spoke of "liberating" the country.
“Almost every day, the United States publicly threatens Cuba with the forcible overthrow of its constitutional order. They use a revolting pretext: the harsh restrictions imposed on a weakened economy that they have attacked and tried to isolate for more than six decades,” accused the Cuban president, referring to the US embargo in place since 1962. They “announce plans to seize the country, its resources, its assets, and even its economy—the very same economy they are trying to stifle in order to force our capitulation,” continued Miguel Diaz-Canel, at a time when Washington is exerting maximum pressure on the island by blocking all oil shipments. “Only in this way can one explain the fierce economic war being waged as collective punishment against the entire population.”
For weeks, Donald Trump has been making increasingly aggressive statements against Cuba and its leaders, while simultaneously asserting that the island, in talks with Washington, wants to "reach an agreement" with the United States. Cuba confirmed on Friday that it is in talks with its neighbor and released political prisoners as part of an agreement brokered by the Vatican, a long-standing mediator between the two ideological adversaries.
