Colombo, Jan 15 (Prensa Latina) The Lanka Leader newspaper denounced threats of aggression against Cuba by US President Donald Trump and the start of a psychological campaign launched by that northern nation against the Cuban people.

The Sri Lankan digital newspaper also condemned in a recent article the repeated statements by high-ranking officials of the Trump administration, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, regarding the alleged success of the criminal airstrike on Venezuela, which could push Cuba to the brink.

It noted that the US rhetoric toward Havana has intensified in the last few weeks.

The Lanka Leader denounced the United States for maintaining a broad economic, commercial, and financial blockade against Cuba for more than 60 years and the unjust inclusion of the Caribbean nation in Washington’s State Sponsors of Terrorism (SSOT) list.

The publication also highlighted President Miguel Diaz-Canel’s response to the current threats from the White House to his nation, where he affirmed that Washington lacked the moral authority to impose an agreement on Havana.

Diaz-Canel said Cuba is a free, independent, and sovereign nation, and it will not tolerate being told what to do.
