US President Donald Trump has someone in mind to be the next leader of Cuba – his secretary of state, Marco Rubio.
On Sunday, Trump reposted an image of an X post that jokingly claimed that the top US diplomat would be made the president of the Caribbean island.
“Sounds good to me!” Trump responded on Truth Social.
In a follow-up message, he accused Cuba of subsisting on oil money from Venezuela.
The latter country’s president, Nicolas Maduro, was kidnapped by US special forces last week following months of pressure from Washington, after which Trump demanded “total access” to the South American nation’s oil. A number of Cubans in Maduro’s personal security team were killed in the raid.
