Cuba unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, while reaffirming its commitment to cooperate with the United States and other nations to strengthen regional and international security.
Cuba categorically declares that it does not harbor, support, finance, or permit terrorist or extremist organizations. Our country maintains a policy of zero tolerance toward the financing of terrorism and money laundering and is committed to the prevention, detection, and combating of illicit financial activities, in accordance with international standards.
Any past interaction that may have involved individuals later designated as terrorists occurred solely in limited humanitarian contexts, linked to internationally recognized peace processes, at the request of their respective governments, and in a fully transparent manner.
Cuba does not host foreign military or intelligence bases and rejects the characterization of being a threat to the security of the United States. Nor has it supported any hostile activity against that country, nor will it allow its territory to be used against another nation. On the contrary, Cuba stands ready to reactivate and expand bilateral cooperation with the United States to address shared transnational threats, while never renouncing the defense of its sovereignty and independence.
Cuba proposes renewing technical cooperation with the United States in areas including the fight against terrorism, the prevention of money laundering, the fight against drug trafficking, cybersecurity, trafficking in persons, and financial crimes, and will continue strengthening its legal framework to support these efforts, mindful that progress has been possible in these areas whenever there has been political will on the part of the parties.
The Cuban people and the American people benefit from constructive engagement, cooperation in accordance with the law, and peaceful coexistence. Cuba reaffirms its willingness to maintain a respectful and reciprocal dialogue with the Government of the United States, aimed at achieving tangible results, based on mutual interest and international law.
