[Trump said the United States and Cuba will reach an agreement] September 27th, US President Trump said on the 26th that he believed that the United States and Cuba would reach an agreement, and the United States "does not need to use its military."
Trump made the above remarks on the South Lawn of the White House before heading to Tennessee that day.
Cuban Foreign Minister Rodriguez said in his speech at the general debate of the United Nations General Assembly that day that the U.S. blockade against Cuba was "an act of collective punishment" and was intended to trigger a humanitarian crisis in Cuba. He also stated that Cuba poses no threat to the United States and is always ready to engage in dialogue with the United States on the basis of sovereign equality and respect for international law.
The United States has long implemented an economic and financial blockade and trade embargo against Cuba. After launching military operations against Venezuela and Iran this year, the United States has issued threats to Cuba, further increased pressure on Cuba, implemented an oil blockade, and expanded sanctions against Cuba. According to previous news from the United States, the Trump administration’s strategy towards Cuba is increasingly focused on increasing economic sanctions and pressure rather than deploying military force.
