Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel accused the United States of seeking to seize the island, according to a report by Insider Paper. No further details were provided.
The accusation adds to a series of mutual recriminations between the United States and Cuba. As The Zioneer has reported, the US State Department previously accused Cuba of infiltrating the US government and backing left-wing terrorism, while Cuba said no progress had been made in negotiations with Washington. The latest statement by President Díaz-Canel, reported by Insider Paper, did not provide specifics on the alleged US plan to seize the island. The report comes amid heightened tensions over Cuba's alignment with China and Russia, though the Pentagon has downplayed the prospect of imminent military action.
