The US president has not ruled out a military invasion of the island, which is already struggling under an American oil blockade
US President Donald Trump has said he wants to “get Cuba done” before leaving office in two years, adding that he is open to ordering a military operation against the island.
Speaking to conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt on Thursday, Trump made clear that he “would certainly consider” a week-long campaign against Cuba, which the US has kept under a de facto blockade while openly advocating for regime change.
“I want to get Cuba done before I leave. And we have a very good, talented guy for Cuba named Marco,” he said, referring to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, whose parents emigrated from Cuba and who has been particularly critical of the government in Havana.
