Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel called on the entire world to rise up against the United States' threats of 'taking over the government.' Describing Trump's statements as 'a dangerous and savage criminal act,' Canel invited the international community to stop this hegemonic ambition, while declaring that they would resist for independence in every inch of Cuban territory and that no power could force them to their knees.
Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel gave a very harsh response to Donald Trump's statements that they will take over the government in Cuba in a short time. Describing the US military attack threats as 'dangerous and unprecedented,' Canel called on the international community to resist this 'brutal and criminal' attempt, declaring that the Cuban people will defend every inch of their land on the path to independence.
'THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY MUST TAKE NOTE OF THIS SITUATION'
In a statement on his social media account, Canel not only responded to Trump but also made an appeal to the entire world. Arguing that an attack on Cuba should not be allowed for the interests of a 'small but wealthy group full of revengeful ambition' within the US, Canel invited international public opinion and the American people to be sensitive to this 'hegemonic ambition.'
'NO MATTER HOW POWERFUL...'
Considering US President Trump's 'takeover' outburst as a declaration of aggression, the Cuban leader emphasized that his country will not back down. Canel stated, 'No matter how powerful, no aggressor will find surrender in Cuba,' giving the message that they will face a people determined to defend independence.
TRUMP'S THREATS AND RISING TENSIONS
Donald Trump's claims that the government in Cuba will change hands in a short time have opened the door to a new political and military crisis in the region. Canel emphasized that such rhetoric violates international law and that Cuba's sovereignty rights cannot be subject to bargaining.
