President Trump Announces US Negotiations with Cuba Amid Trade Tariffs
According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, US President Donald Trump confirmed in a press briefing that Washington is engaged in talks with Cuban leadership. He indicated that both parties appear close to reaching an agreement.
The announcement comes just weeks after President Trump signed an executive order on January 29 authorizing tariffs on oil-exporting nations supplying goods to Cuba. The Caribbean nation remains on the US list of national security threats.
Analysts note these developments align with the Trump administration’s continued application of the Monroe Doctrine, seeking to expand US influence throughout Latin America. The simultaneous negotiation and economic pressure reflect the administration’s dual-track approach to regional engagement.
