Washington could target Havana after military operations in the Middle East are over, the American president has said

A regime change in Cuba is “just a question of time,” US President Donald Trump has said, renewing threats against the island’s government and suggesting Washington could turn its focus on Havana once the Iran military campaign ends.

Speaking at the White House on Thursday, Trump praised Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the Miami-born son of Cuban immigrants, for doing a “fantastic job” on Cuba, where the US has stepped up sanctions on the island’s economy. In recent months, Washington has tightened the economic pressure, effectively imposing an oil blockade that has compounded severe fuel and food shortages.
