Trump says Cuba ‘will fall’ at UN meeting, prompting Cuban delegation to walk out

  • On Tuesday, President Donald Trump labeled Cuba an "absolutely failed state" during his United Nations General Assembly address, prompting the Cuban delegation to walk out of the General Assembly Hall.

  • Reports indicate Trump actively considered launching a military operation against Cuba and abducting its leaders, similar to the January authorization involving Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.
  • Seeking a "fundamental change" in Cuba, the administration noted that Marco Rubio is "deep into negotiations" with the island nation to manage the diplomatic relationship.
  • Hardline Cuban-Americans in Florida have long advocated for regime change since the 1959 overthrow of U.S.-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista, providing a political base for Trump's policies.
