New threat: Trump confirms interest in a change of power in Cuba

Washington. US President Donald Trump has signaled that he wants to force a change of power in Cuba in the two remaining years of his term in office and could also be prepared to use military force to achieve this. “I want Cuba taken care of before I go,” Trump said in a radio interview. When asked by moderator Hugh Hewitt whether he would accept a week-long military campaign for this, the US President replied: “I would definitely consider it.”

Trump had already brought up US military intervention in Cuba several times. In October, during an appearance before the upcoming US parliamentary election, he said that American warships could head to the Caribbean island on the way back from their mission in the Iran War and stop off its coast - the rulers in Cuba would then surrender.
