US President Donald Trump expressed optimism on Saturday about reaching a resolution with Cuba. This statement follows his recent threat of imposing tariffs on countries providing oil to Cuba. Trump reiterated his call for Cuba to engage in negotiations with the United States, emphasizing the need to avoid a humanitarian crisis. During a press briefing on Air Force One en route to Florida, Trump stated that Cuba, facing economic challenges due to the halt in Venezuelan aid, might seek a deal with the US. Venezuela, previously a major oil supplier to Cuba, saw a significant reduction in shipments to the island after the US imposed restrictions on Venezuelan exports. In January, Reuters reported that Mexico, Cuba’s primary oil source post-Venezuela’s cutoff, was deliberating its oil supply to Cuba amid concerns over potential repercussions from Washington.
