Cuban President Miguel D\u00edaz-Canel has defended the island\u2019s sovereignty in the face of an escalating series of aggressions and threats currently directed at the country by the United States government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe future of Cuba will never be decided in the north. We made that clear as early as January 1, 1959, and it will not change, no matter how twisted the Yankee plans to force us into submission may be. `They ought to know that by now,\u201d the president wrote on the social media platform X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
D\u00edaz-Canel described it as \u201cperverse\u201d that Washington refuses to take responsibility for the collective punishment it inflicts upon the Cuban people\u2014a punishment carried out through \u201ca criminal blockade on fuel and a pathological persecution of anything that might contribute to the country\u2019s development and material well-being.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the head of state, the lies the United States uses to justify this genocide are becoming \u201cincreasingly ridiculous,\u201d even as the number of people who believe them continues to shrink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCuba will continue to fight for truth and justice,\u201d the president concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
D\u00edaz-Canel\u2019s message came after U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Monday that Cuba \u201cwill fall quite soon\u201d and that it is \u201ca failed nation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also declared on Monday that Cuba is a \u201cfailed state\u201d that poses a \u201cthreat\u201d to Washington\u2019s security and interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
