Trump says Cuba ‘will fall’ at UN meeting, prompting Cuban delegation to walk out
Trump said his administration seeks a fundamental change in Cuba as sanctions intensify and the island faces fuel shortages and blackouts, officials said.
- As the United Nations General Assembly convenes in New York, Deputy Cuban Foreign Minister Carlos Fernández de Cossío accused the Trump administration of seeking to "asphyxiate the people of Cuba into submission" through intensified economic pressure.
- President Trump cut off fuel shipments to the island in January, triggering at least six major blackouts since then, including one on Friday that left millions of Cubans without power or running water.
- Health officials report child mortality rates nearly doubled from 4 to 9.4 in recent years, while the CIA recently formed a secret task force to pressure the Cuban government with new cyber and covert operations.
- Foreign Minister Bruno Eduardo Rodríguez Parrilla described the U.S. embargo as "economic warfare" and "collective punishment," warning that powerful nations imposing their will through intimidation face a "dangerous and unsustainable" world.
- Havana remains prepared for dialogue with Washington to resolve bilateral differences, provided talks are based on sovereign equality, non-interference, and respect for international law, according to Rodríguez Parrilla.
