AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoCIA ultimatum and drone scare: Cuba’s government is pushing back hard after Axios claims Havana has bought 300+ drones from Russia and Iran and discussed strikes on Guantánamo, U.S. warships, and Key West—calling it a “fraudulent case” and a pretext for aggression. “Bloodbath” warning: President Miguel Díaz-Canel escalated the rhetoric, saying any U.S. military action would trigger a “bloodbath with incalculable consequences,” while Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez framed the U.S. narrative as falsifications. Overt pressure campaign: The week’s flashpoint is the CIA chief’s visible trip to Havana—Ratcliffe met Cuban intelligence and senior contacts, delivering Trump’s message that Washington will engage only after “fundamental changes.” Energy backdrop: The drone talk lands amid a worsening fuel-and-power crisis that’s already driving protests and straining healthcare, with the U.N. citing “energy starvation” and tens of thousands awaiting surgery. Sanctions and legal threats: The same pressure stack includes talk of U.S. moves against Raúl Castro and tighter sanctions risk.
