«The truth is Cuba's already fallen. It doesn't have a functional economy, and it's governed by people who continue to preach about some revolution that has been dead for 20 years. [...] it is a failed state in every sense of the word.
Now, they may have a government that's capable of jailing and killing people. They have a regime that's capable of, and has, jailed and killed people. But it's not a functional government, and it's not a functional country. [...] it's one that's fueled by corruption, graft, and theft. [...] Anything that had a chance of making money in Cuba was controlled by the Cuban military and the Cuban Communist Party to line the pockets of a handful of individuals at the expense of the entire country.
You know that since 2021, at least close to 20% of Cuba's population has left the country.»
➡️ US policy and security posture:
«We're hopeful that Cuba will choose a different path. [...] What they're no longer going to do as long as Donald Trump is president, is they're no longer going to be able to steal money and make money off the backs of the Cuban people.
And what we're not going to allow ever, under any circumstances, as long as President Trump is president, is we're never going to allow Cuba to become a base of operation against American interests or pose a threat to our national security. On that, we're abundantly clear.»
