Cuba ‘in its last moments of life,’ Trump says
DORAL, United States (AFP) — United States (US) President Donald Trump on Saturday told several Latin American allies that Cuba is in its “last moments of life” and a “great change” is coming to the communist-ruled nation.
“I’ll take care of Cuba,” Trump told a dozen leaders at a Latin Americas summit in Florida that did not include officials from Havana.
“They have no money, they have no oil. They have a bad philosophy, they have a bad regime that’s been bad for a long time,” the US president said, adding, “Cuba’s in its last moments of life.”
