Statement of the President: Cuba is guided by one certainty: any external aggressor will face unyielding resistance

The U.S publicly threatens Cuba, almost daily, with overthrowing the constitutional order by force. And it uses an outrageous pretext: the severe constraints of the weakened economy that they have attacked and sought to isolate for more than six decades. They intend to and announce plans to take over the country, its resources, its properties, and even the very economy they seek to suffocate in order to force us to surrender. This is the only way to explain the fierce economic war being waged as collective punishment against the entire people. Faced with the worst-case scenario, Cuba is guided by one certainty: any external aggressor will face unyielding resistance.

Cuba calls for an end to the new aggression by the United States and Israel against Iran and avoid an escalation in the Middle East

Cuba condemns in the strongest terms the attacks perpetrated this 28 February by the United States and Israel, which breach the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter and International Law. This irresponsible and deliberate attack boycotts the efforts of international diplomacy regarding the nuclear issue, for the second time and while negotiations on the nuclear issue were underway. Once again, the United States and Israel threaten and seriously endanger regional and international peace, stability and security, the effects of which are already being felt in the Middle East region.

Statement by the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Republic of Cuba, Carlos Fernández de Cossío

Yesterday, our authorities reported an attempted infiltration for terrorist purposes involving 10 individuals aboard a vessel registered in the State of Florida, United States.

An investigation is currently underway to fully clarify the facts with the utmost rigor. The Cuban government is willing to exchange information with the United States government concerning this incident.
