An unexpected turn in international politics: German Chancellor Friedrich Merz publicly condemned Washington's course regarding Cuba. At a joint press conference with Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, he emphasized that the island nation poses no threat to other countries.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has openly criticized Washington's aggressive policy towards Cuba for the first time. During a press conference with Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, he categorically stated that Cuba poses no threat to third countries.
Call for Diplomacy
"There are no visible grounds for intervention in Cuba," said the head of the German government. "I can only strongly advise seeking a path through diplomatic and peaceful means, rather than starting a new conflict unnecessarily, which will only create additional problems. The ability to defend oneself does not give the right to military intervention in the affairs of other states—even if their political systems do not align with the views of the other side."
American Ambitions Regarding Cuba
Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump mentioned the possibility of "looking into Cuba" after resolving the situation regarding Iran. The head of the White House also boasted that the U.S. could "friendly establish control over Cuba."
