Tensions are escalating sharply in the Western Hemisphere as Cuba issues a defiant warning to the United States amid fresh pressure from President Donald Trump. Havana rejected what it called economic blackmail, after Trump threatened to cut off oil and financial support unless Cuba strikes a deal with Washington. Cuban leaders insist the island has never sold security services or acted as a mercenary state, drawing a sharp contrast with U.S. foreign policy. Cuba says it is ready to defend its sovereignty “to the last drop of blood.” The standoff marks a dangerous new chapter in U.S.–Cuba relations.#Cuba, #Maduro, #Trump, #USCuba, #OilSanctions, #LatinAmerica, #Geopolitics, #BreakingNews
