वेनेजुएला-ईरान के बाद क्यूबा पर हमला कर सकता है अमेरिका: ट्रम्प बोले- क्यूबा को हासिल करके रहूंगा; 65 साल से दोनों देशों के संबंध खराब

US President Trump, speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Monday, said that he intends to ‘take over Cuba’. He said, “I will take Cuba one way or another… whether I liberate it or take it under my control. I can do anything with it.”

According to the New York Times, this statement of Trump is being considered quite shocking. Many presidents in US history have had tense relations with Cuba, but no one has openly talked about occupying Cuba like this.

This year Trump has already taken military action in Venezuela and Iran. In such a situation, his statement is not being considered as just a joke or a sudden statement, rather it is being considered as a possible next step. Relations between America and Cuba have been deteriorating for 65 years.

President Trump speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Monday regarding the Cuba issue.

America stopped oil supply to Cuba

Earlier on Sunday, Trump had also said in Air Force One, “I am handling Cuba… soon we will make a deal or do whatever has to be done.” He also made it clear that his priority is Iran first, then Cuba.

In fact, America is already putting pressure on Cuba. Since January, America has almost stopped the oil supply to Cuba. Other countries are also being warned not to supply oil to Cuba. Recently the US Coast Guard also stopped an oil tanker going from Colombia to Cuba.

Its effect is clearly visible in Cuba. No major oil supply has reached there since January 9. The situation there is worsening rapidly. Petrol has reached about $ 35 per gallon in Cuba’s black market.

Electricity is being cut daily, there was a blackout across the country on Monday. Surgeries are being postponed in hospitals. There is a shortage of medicines and the problem of food is increasing. In these circumstances, pressure on the Cuban government has increased.

People were seen gathered on the streets during the blackout on Monday night in Havana, the capital of Cuba.

Cuba trying to make a deal with Trump

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, while addressing the country recently, admitted that talks are going on with America and the process of opening the economy can start soon.

There is also news that America wants Diaz-Canel to step down from the post of President of Cuba. However, America is not currently talking about direct action against the Castro family. This strategy is similar to that adopted in Venezuela.

This means that instead of changing the government in Cuba, Trump wants to force it to behave as per his wish.

Russia said – will help Cuba if needed

Meanwhile, Russia has indicated that it can support Cuba if needed. Officials of both the countries are in constant contact.

The beginning of economic recovery is also visible in Cuba. A senior official there has announced that Cubans living abroad will now be able to invest, do banking and do business in the country. This is considered a big change.

However, the situation was so bad that this announcement had to be made not on TV but on radio, because there was no electricity. As of Tuesday morning, about 70 percent of the capital Havana was without electricity.

Trump wants to create investment opportunity in Cuba

Trump’s statement also makes it clear that he is looking at Cuba not only from a political but also from a business perspective. He is already looking at the possibility of investment in this island. In 1998, his company quietly organized a tour of Cuba. Even in 2011-12, people of his organization had seen the possibilities of building a golf course there.

Even during the 2016 election campaign, Trump had said that Cuba could be a good opportunity for investment. Now he said again, “They are talking to us. This is a failed country. They have no money, no oil, nothing.”

Along with this, he also praised the land and climate of Cuba and described it as a beautiful island. But his statement also showed that he did not have complete geographical knowledge. He said that Cuba does not fall in the area of ​​hurricanes, whereas in reality Cuba is often affected by hurricanes.

In the end Trump gave indications as if Cuba was already America’s property. “They don’t have to ask us for money every week for hurricanes,” he said.

America used to control Cuba after independence

After the Spanish-American War in 1898, Cuba became independent from Spain, but real control passed into the hands of America. America had a major influence on Cuba’s politics, military and economy. American companies had dominance in the land, sugar industry and business there.

In 1959, revolutionary Fidel Castro, along with his guerrilla soldiers, ousted dictator Batista from power. Batista was a dictator. America itself supported Fidel Castro during the fight against him.

Castro’s interviews were published in American newspapers. After gaining power, Castro made major changes. He adopted communist policy in the country. Confiscated the assets of American companies and took land and industry under government control.

Fidel Castro ruled Cuba for nearly five decades from 1959 to 2008.

When US imposed sanctions, Cuba became close to Soviet Union

The US imposed economic sanctions on Cuba in response. Business was closed and supply of oil and essential goods was stopped. Due to this, Cuba’s economy started deteriorating. After this Cuba turned towards the Soviet Union (Russia). Because of this, relations between America and Cuba continued to deteriorate further.

The relations between these two were so bad that no American President visited Cuba for 55 years. This sequence ended in 2015 when Barack Obama went to Cuba as US President, but by then his brother Raul had taken power in Cuba in place of Fidel.

America tried to kill Castro 600 times

America considered Fidel Castro one of its biggest enemies. According to many reports, America made more than 600 unsuccessful attempts to kill Fidel Castro in 60 years. The American intelligence agency had tried many measures to kill Fidel, from poisonous cigars to poisonous pens, although all these efforts failed.

Once one of his former girlfriends also agreed to join the conspiracy to kill Fidel Castro. Under this conspiracy, a jar of poisonous cold cream was to be delivered to Castro to kill him, but Castro already got wind of it and this plan also failed. Fidel Castro died on November 25, 2016, in Havana, Cuba, at the age of 90.

America was seeing this war as a great success after more than 40 officials including Khamenei were killed in Iran. But after 17 days the situation has changed. There is no clear end to the war in sight.

In response, Iran stopped oil supplies through the Strait of Hormuz, causing a major blow to the world economy. Trump is now appealing to his NATO allies to open the way into Hormuz. Read the full news…
