Donald Trump made several allegations against Cuba as he enacted an executive order blocking oil shipments to the island on Thursday, but one took Cubans completely by surprise. His claim that Cuba acts as a safe haven for Hamas and Hezbollah has been dismissed as complete nonsense by Cubans, just one in a “long list of lies” says the Cuban government.
There are, in fact, hundreds of Palestinians in Cuba, but they’re here training to be doctors, alongside medical students from over 100 countries at the Latin American School of Medicine.
We asked them what they thought of Trump’s claims.
Just trying to justify further imperialist incursions as if the way we have sanctioned Cuba out of the world economy isn’t a violent enough punishment for them having the audacity to uplift their people.
Is cuba safe from the disgusting american nazi swine?
Answer is probably no, as they have no nukes and no allies.
