Cuba denies contacts with the United States over Venezuela's future

- On Dec 8, Cuba denied contacting the United States about a Venezuela without President Nicolas Maduro, calling the media report absurd and false as Josefina Vidal told the Associated Press the talks did not occur.
- The Trump administration has launched an offensive on alleged drug‑trafficking boats in the Caribbean and Pacific in recent months, killing dozens through missile strikes, while Cuba criticized the attacks.
- Using strong language, Vidal told the Associated Press that 'Cuba rejects attempts to tarnish its clean record of fighting for peace in Latin America and the Caribbean and against drug trafficking', Vidal said.
- Reuters sought comment and Cuba did not immediately respond, while the White House also did not immediately reply; top law enforcement officials in Cuba said last week they prioritize fighting narcotics and share information with the U.S. Coast Guard.
- A U.S. State Department spokesperson accused Cuba and Venezuela of destabilizing the hemisphere, while the administration emphasized its commitment to protecting Americans and advancing counternarcotics.
