United Nations, September 24 (RHC)-- Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez said today there was a lot of slander and little substance in the speech of US  President Donald Trump before the UN General Assembly.

"They were statements full of threats to the countries of the South, particularly to our America, and what I hear among the delegations at the UN is that it was full of falsehoods and generated rejection and mocks", Rodríguez told Telesur and Prensa Latina.

"Trump's was a slanderous speech, with the handling of lies, typical of the politics and management of his Government. The accusations he launched are falsehoods that no one can believe," stressed the Cuban foreign minister.

The Cuban foregn minister added that in the words of the American president, a huge inclination to the Monroe doctrine could be appreciated, and  he considered it was a deeply macarthistioc speech.

"He was trying to scare American voters with socialism, I feel he spoke as if he were the emperor of a new era, but he was uncomfortable in his way of acting and was hardly applauded", Rodriguez added.

In the view of the Cuban top diplomat,  Trump is trying  to divert the attention of the international community and the American public itself from the enormous and growing internal problems of the country.

Trump, second speaker in the high-level debate of the General Assembly, repeated his attacks on countries he considers a threat to American interests and re-promoted his 'United States first' agenda.

He also exhibited hostility against nations that do not fall within Washington's 'democracy' model or accept the pressures of his Government, such as Iran, Cuba, Nicaragua and Venezuela.

Trump again showed interference in the internal affairs of Latin American countries by saying he hopes to see the day when 'democracy is restored' in Venezuela, and also attacked Cuba, Nicaragua, and socialism.
