Zarah Sultana says Cuba is next on Trump’s ‘hit list’

In response to the latest announcement from the Trump regime, Your Party MP Zarah Sultana has said the following:

You’ll note the Trump regime’s announcement was made before the latest release of Epstein Files. As we reported, the release contains allegations Trump is ‘compromised’ by Israel, and that he raped and beat a child.

Zarah Sultana — ‘Hands off Cuba!’

As Drop Site highlighted, a recent Financial Times report claimed:

Cuba has just 15–20 days of oil left, after US pressure helped halt Venezuelan shipments and Mexico’s Pemex suspended a delivery. The shortage has already fueled near-daily blackouts and fuel rationing. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said that her government provides oil to Cuba via contracts with Pemex and via humanitarian aid mechanisms, the latter she said would continue.

The order tightens a blockade strategy that leverages economic collapse and humanitarian crisis under the guise of national security.

A key driver of regime change in Cuba is secretary of state Marco Rubio, who Trump referred to as “little Marco” when they competed for the presidential nomination in 2016:

This was how little Marco viewed Trump at the time:

Little Marco’s family left Cuba three years before Castro took over, but he has claimed they fled after the takeover. He had to apologise for this when observers exposed his lie.

According to Ernesto Castañeda (director of Latin American studies at American University), toppling the Cuban government is Rubio’s primary political objective:

He has always been – and I think this is the right word – obsessed with Cuba and bringing down the regime there. That explains his worldview… and now he’s espousing that policy in the White House.

This is how the Guardian described Little Marco earlier this month:

The secretary of state – a neoconservative foreign policy hawk turned America First cheerleader – has defied expectations that he would not last in Trump’s cabinet

Has he ‘turned’, though?

Trump ran on a platform of not pursuing foreign wars, and now he’s threatening sovereign nations the world over. All the while, Rubio is standing behind him, rubbing his clammy little hands together.

While it’s obviously correct that Rubio does his fair share of sucking up to Trump, it seems that debasing himself is producing results.

Expansionism

This is what Sultana said earlier this month:

This is what she wrote in 2021:

We’ve all seen the result of America interfering with foreign countries. It’s time for the world to mature, and to cease being led by the vindictive power fantasies of petty, short men.
