At the United Nations General Assembly, U.S. President Donald Trump referred to Cuba as a 'failed state' and claimed the country 'will fall,' prompting Cuban delegates to leave the room during his speech. The U.S. has maintained a trade embargo against Cuba for over 60 years, and the Trump administration has increased pressure on the communist-controlled nation. According to Al Jazeera English, Senator Marco Rubio commented on Trump's remarks, suggesting the U.S. is open to discussions with Cuba regarding government change. The Cuban delegation's departure highlights the tension between the two nations, particularly in the context of ongoing economic and political disagreements. No further details on the potential for dialogue were provided by the sources.
