President Donald Trump said Friday during remarks in Florida that the United States would take over Cuba “almost immediately,” suggesting an aircraft carrier could be positioned offshore after the conflict in Iran.

While the president’s comments appeared partly joking, they followed concrete policy action in the form of broadened sanctions.
And the Cuban people overall like their government. Any pressing issues are wholly the fault of the USA, as far as can be assessed.
Sorry but from the information I can gather the Cuban people have similar opinions as Iranians have for their government.
They don’t like them, with real reason for no revolution because the US is not genuinely helping the people but trying to get their own oligarchs in power.
With both sides shooting the best the people in the middle can do is keep their head down and survive (unfortunately)
No they don’t lmao. Only the old generations still alive after the Revolution when they kicked out the USA are still die-hards. Most of the younger to middle aged people in general hate the Cuban government. How couldn’t they? They live the life while regular ppl have nothing due to the horrible sanctions by the USA. You don’t win hearts and minds with poverty, hunger, disease and death.
In regards to the sanctions: that’s a crime against humanity for an island like Cuba.
I doubt the Cuban people blame their government for illegal USA sanctions.
Yes they do. Spent 2 months there in March last year.
Sounds misplaced, then, because they are being sanctioned by the US for literally just existing as an independent country
Lol 🤓
While the Cuban people don’t love the sanctions the reason for anti-goverment sentiment is the state apparatus not looking like doing anything to resolve the crisis but put more in the so called revolutionary defense committee and security institutions
Exactly
