A comment on a Cuban news platform has laid bare deep anxieties about US aggression under Donald Trump, with the writer warning that Cuba itself could be seized. The reader, commenting on an article titled ‘El colapso de Trump que está en camino,’ argued that Latin American leaders are acting in isolation and failing to mount a united front.
‘Really, one cannot see where Trump’s collapse could begin; all the presidents of Central and South America manifest themselves individually, they do not unite,’ the comment reads. It goes on to list potential US actions: taking over Greenland, seizing Cuba, invading Colombia, taking control of the Panama Canal, and even invading Mexico.
The commentator, Filemón Hernández Ramírez, suggests that individual countries might resist but neighbors would remain on the sidelines, doing nothing. The comment ends with the saying, ‘the brave live while the coward waits.’
The post reflects a growing concern among some Cubans about US policy and regional disunity, as Trump has previously threatened to tighten the embargo or take other actions against the island.
