Cuban President Accuses U.S. of Seeking to Seize Island

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel accused the United States of seeking to seize the island, citing the US oil embargo and economic crisis as evidence. The US maintains that Cuba poses a security threat to the region and violates the rights of its citizens. The Cuban government has been facing a severe economic crisis, with the island experiencing one of its worst economic crises in recent history. The US has imposed an oil embargo on Cuba since January, further exacerbating the economic crisis.
