On Saturday, Deputy Foreign Minister Carlos Fernández de Cossío denounced the effort to normalize the threat of military aggression against Cuba by the United States as part of a coldly calculated communications strategy. He warned that this strategy is part of a crime and those who participate in it will be complicit in the bloodbath.

Previously, the Cuban diplomat responded to statements by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who, without any evidence, accused the Havana administration of wasting resources and neglecting social priorities.

Fernández de Cossío pointed out that the objective of these statements is to justify the collective punishment currently being waged against the Cuban people and the possibility of military aggression.

In response to this narrative, the Deputy Foreign Minister detailed the guidelines for state investment, emphasizing that, even under U.S. blockade, Cuba has focused its investment efforts on maintaining the national electricity system, with a significant boost to renewable energy, the modernization of telecommunications, and the expansion of internet access.
