Trump announced his intention to take Cuba under control after the end of the war in Iran

The United States of America may send the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln to the shores of Cuba in order to capture the island. This was announced by US President Donald Trump on May 2, speaking at a forum in Florida.

"On the way back from Iran, one of our large aircraft carriers, possibly the USS Abraham Lincoln, the largest in the world, will approach at a distance of about 100 yards (about 90 m. — Ed.) from the coast, and they will say: "Thank you very much, we surrender," Trump said in a video posted on the White House YouTube channel.

He added that he plans to deal with Cuba "almost immediately" after resolving the issue of a peace agreement with Iran. He added that Cuba "will definitely have problems."

Why Havana may become the next target for an American attack, although it does not have serious natural resources

On April 29, Reuters reported that the U.S. Senate had blocked a resolution that would have prohibited Trump from initiating military action against Cuba without congressional approval. It is noted that 51 votes were cast for the rejection of the resolution. Against — 47. The distribution was "almost entirely along party lines," the agency notes.

On April 20, Der Spiegel magazine quoted German Chancellor Friedrich Merz as saying that the United States had no grounds for military intervention in Cuba.He stressed that the American leader stands for a strong national defense capability, but the ability to defend oneself does not mean the right to intervene militarily in other countries if their political systems do not correspond to what they imagine. Merz expressed the opinion that at the moment the United States has no reason to launch such an operation.
