The government of Miguel Díaz-Canel in Cuba denounced the presence of United States (US) naval and air military forces in the southern Caribbean, describing these activities as a deployment under false pretexts and a response to a corrupt agenda of the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, through the social network X, reiterated that Latin America and the Caribbean must be respected as a Zone of Peace, and rejected any action that would compromise the sovereignty of the countries of the region.

Cuban diplomacy emphasized that this military presence represents a threat to the security and peace of Latin America and the Caribbean, a complaint that adds to a previous Cuban criticism, issued on March 19, 2025, against the deployment of the destroyer ship USS Gravely in the Gulf of Mexico, also under the supposed pretext of combating illegal drug trafficking.
