According to a report by the New York Times, the Trump administration is seeking a new leader in Cuba who can alter the country’s political trajectory. Citing current and former US officials, the report states that the administration’s goal is to find a leader who can change Havana’s political course.
The US has been tightening its decades-old blockade of Cuba since President Donald Trump took office. The move is seen as an attempt to exert pressure on the Cuban government.
The New York Times report suggests that the US is attempting to replicate a scenario similar to the one in Venezuela, where the US has been actively seeking to replace the current government. However, the report notes that the US may face a more challenging task in Cuba.
The details of the US strategy for Cuba remain unclear, but the report indicates that the Trump administration is exploring options to influence the country’s political future.
