On May 2, 2026, Trump made comments implying a military operation in Cuba could occur after US forces address issues in Iran. This statement has raised eyebrows given the context of heightened tensions.
The remarks came shortly after Washington announced new sanctions targeting Cuba, which Havana has condemned as unjust. This adds to the already strained relations between the two nations.
While Trump's comments may have been made in jest, they reflect a serious military focus that could have significant implications for US-Cuba relations moving forward.
