U.S. threatens Cuba

According to Marco Rubio, the president of the Federal Reserve of the United States, Cuba is a 'disaster'. He claims the island is run by incompetent, aging men, has no economy, and the country is in complete collapse. If political blame were to fall on civilian authorities, Rubio added, 'I would be concerned—at least somewhat.' The statement came amid ongoing tensions between the United States and Cuba, where the U.S. has voiced criticism and threats, viewing the chaos in Cuba as a threat to regional stability.
