Trump Threatens to 'Stop by' Another Country After His War in Iran. Their President Says, 'If We Need to Die, We'll Die'

Donald Trump, a self-proclaimed president of peace, is seemingly threatening to launch another military strike after he finishes his war in Iran.

However, his latest adversary is signaling that their country won’t go down without a brutal fight.

On Monday (April 13), the 79-year-old president spoke to the press outside the White House while participating in an event commemorating his No Tax on Tips policy.

During a Q&A, Trump was asked about another country, strongly implying that he might “stop by” there after the military wraps up their current battle in the Middle East, where he now ordered a naval blockade against Iran on the Strait of Hormuz.

The country in question was Cuba.

“We’re going to see with Cuba. Cuba is another story,” Trump said when asked, describing the country as being “terribly run.”

“It’s got a bad system. It’s been very oppressive, as you know. And we have a lot of great Cuban Americans, all of whom just about voted for me,” he alleged.

The president continued, adding, “And they were treated very badly. In many cases, family members have been killed. They’ve been beaten up and mugged and, like, terrible things happen in Cuba.”

Insisting that Cuba was “a failing nation,” Trump said, “And we’re going to do this, and we may stop by Cuba after we’re finished with this. But Cuba is a nation that was just been horribly run for many years by Castro.”

Cuba’s President Miguel Díaz-Canel has recently made it clear that his country would not be bullied by the White House.

Appearing on NBC News’ Meet the Press, Díaz-Canel addressed recent comments made by Trump and other politicians in the United States.

“Over the last few days, many things have been said, not only by the president, but also by other officials of the U.S. government,” he said, via a translator, adding that the messages were “very aggressive.”

He added, “You really have to know the history of our country. Our country, and our identity, has deeply rooted values of sovereignty and independence. For 150 years, Cuba has fought first to free itself from the colony and the neo-colony. And with the Cuban Revolution and its triumph in 1959, we got rid of a number of dependence, the servitude and the subordination to a foreign power. And that resulted in a benefits for the country.”

“We are a country of peace. We do not promote war. We do not like war. We encourage solidarity and cooperation among the peoples. But we are willing to defend that peace that we want so we’re not afraid, and we don’t want to be taken by surprise, and we don’t want to be defeated,” he said.

Díaz-Canel went on to say that he didn’t see “any justification for the United States to launch a military aggression.”

However, he said, “If that happens, there’ll be fighting, and there’ll be a struggle. And we’ll defend ourselves. And if we need to die, we’ll die.”

Trump‘s latest remarks about Cuba come just a few days after he wrote in a statement that The U.S. military “is Loading Up and Resting, looking forward, actually, to its next Conquest.”

It was unclear what “conquest” he was referring to, but the president has previously made threatening comments about Cuba.

As his war in Iran rages on, Trump provided a worrying timeline for when gas prices might come back down again.
