31. 'No Aggressor, No Matter How Powerful, Will Find Surrender in Cuba,' President Warns Trump

Sat May 2, 2026, 11:36 PM

Saturday

"President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez of Cuba on Saturday responded with stark and defiant words to the latest attacks coming from US President Donald Trump, who on Friday signed a new executive order authorizing even more aggressive sanctions against the island nation and later threatened to invade the country."

“ 'The President of the United States escalates his threats of military aggression against Cuba to a dangerous and unprecedented scale,' said Díaz-Canel in a statement. 'The international community must take note and, together with the people of the United States, determine whether such a drastic criminal act will be allowed to satisfy the interests of a small but wealthy and influential group, driven by desires for revenge and domination.' "

“ 'No aggressor, no matter how powerful, will find surrender in Cuba,' he added. If Trump were to attack the country, the Cuban president said, “'he will find a people determined to defend sovereignty and independence in every inch of the national territory.' "
