Rubio calls on Cubans seeking change to form 'discrete partnership' with CIA
The Trump administration has repeatedly stated that its goal is to bring about a change in Havana's leadership, with President Donald Trump himself having claimed the country is "ready to fall."
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has called on Cubans seeking change to form a discrete partnership with the CIA, according to a recent social media post. In his message, Rubio urged those looking for positive change in Cuba to seize the opportunity and act now. He expressed disappointment in the failed promises, corruption, and the privileged lives of only a few in the current regime.
The Trump administration has consistently sought to bring about a change in Havana's leadership, with President Donald Trump himself claiming the country is ready to fall. In January, Trump increased pressure on Cuba after announcing an oil blockade following a US military operation to capture former Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro.
Cuba had relied heavily on oil and money from Venezuela, a situation Trump vowed would change. In September, Trump expressed confidence that a deal could be reached with Cuba without resorting to military action. The CIA has provided guidelines for Cubans interested in working with the agency, advising them to avoid using devices or internet connections linked to their identity or workplace, and to share their base location, job title, and level of access to information of interest to the organization.
