Havana, February 20 (RHC)-- President Miguel Díaz Canel said Wednesday that Cubans will respond to Trump’s speech in Miami, Florida, with massive mobilizations in defense of peace and Venezuela’s sovereignty and independence, and with their support for Cuba’s new Constitution, which will be submitted to a national referendum on Sunday, February 24th.
In a Twitter post, Díaz-Canel described Trump’s remarks on Cuba and Venezuela as warmongering, cynical, threatening and totally immoral.
During a press conference here in Havana Tuesday, Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez called on the international community to mobilize in defense of peace and against Washington’s plans to invade Venezuela.
