NEWSRAEL: So many years that the people of Cuba have been oppressed, how can anyone be against liberating them?
During a pointed exchange with NBC News, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered unusually blunt remarks about the future of the Cuban regime.
When asked whether Cuba could be the next target of US pressure, Rubio did not dodge the question. He stated clearly that “the Cuban government is a major problem.” Pressed further by NBC News — “So that’s a yes?” — Rubio replied without hesitation: “I believe they’re in serious trouble. Yes.”
The exchange signals a sharp escalation in rhetoric toward Havana and suggests a possible shift toward a more confrontational US posture against one of the region’s longest-standing communist regimes.
