The denunciation of the Cuban regime is part of its usual narrative, aligned unconditionally with the dictator Nicolás Maduro.
LIMA, Peru – The Cuban regime denounced this Saturday what it describes as “persistent electromagnetic interference in the Caribbean”, regarding the recent actions of the United States against terrorist and drug trafficking organizations.
“Particularly over the airspace of Venezuela, caused by the offensive and extraordinary US military deployment in the region,” Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, Castro’s chancellor, points out in X (Formerly Twitter).
“It is part of the escalation of military aggression and psychological warfare against Venezuelan territory, aimed at forcibly overthrowing the legitimate government of that sister nation of Our America,” added the head of MINREX on the Island.
Last Monday, the United States Department of State formalized the designation of the Cartel de los Soles as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), a decision that marks a new point of tension in Washington’s policy towards the Venezuelan state apparatus.
The measure, announced on November 16 by the State Department, became official on November 24 with the publication of determination in the Federal Register. With this decision, Washington officially considers that the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro, and several senior officials of his Government are part of an international terrorist organization, attributing links to the designated structure.
Rodríguez Parrilla’s message is part of the usual narrative of the Cuban regime, which has aligned itself unconditionally with Maduro and repeats without nuance its version of an external threat.
The last few weeks have marked a moment of high tension in the Caribbean. Washington maintains sanctions on Venezuelan officials and entities to pressure for democratic change and has intensified its position in the face of accusations against the Poster of the Suns.
The presence in the region of the aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, accompanied by a combat group with warships, a nuclear submarine and F-35 aircraft, has further increased the climate of friction. The United States maintains that the deployment seeks to disrupt drug trafficking routes that operate from Venezuela. Caracas, for its part, has denounced the operation as a “direct threat” and has raised its military alert level.
In Cuba, the official version insists that everything is an “imperial” pretext to justify a military escalation, despite the serious internal crisis and the island’s role as a strategic ally of Chavismo.
