Cubans Rally Against Us ‘Imperialists’ Before Havana Embassy

CUBA – Thousands of Cubans gathered before the U.S. Embassy in Havana at daybreak today to protest against what they denounced as U.S. aggression in the region following the capture of Venezuelan leader, Nicola Maduro.

Tension between the two longtime rivals has spiked since the U.S. attack, which resulted in the deaths of 32 cuban military and intelligence officers believed to be defending Maduro.

Cuban President, Miguel Diaz-Canel, dressed in olive-green military garb and with his back to the U.S. embassy, called on Cubans to remain united in the face of U.S. pressure.

President Trump said on Sunday that no more Venezuelan oil or money would go to Cuba, warning Havana to make a deal before it’s “too late.”

Diaz-Canel said that Cuba would defend its homeland, quote, “to the last drop of blood.” end quote.
