Donald Trump has hinted at the next country the United States could target following its military operations in Iran.
Speaking at the White House on Thursday during a visit by players and officials of Inter Miami CF, the 2025 Major League Soccer champions, Trump said his administration could shift its focus to Cuba after the ongoing U.S. military engagement in Iran.
Addressing a largely Miami-based audience, which included several individuals of Cuban descent, the U.S. President noted that Washington may turn its attention to Cuba once the situation involving Iran is resolved.
“What’s happening with Cuba is amazing. We think that we want to fix, finish this one first, but that will be just a question of time before you and a lot of unbelievable people are going to be going back to Cuba, hopefully not to stay,” he said.
This comes barely a week into escalating military hostilities in the Middle East involving the United States, Israel and Iran.
Trump, at the event, equally gave an update on the ongoing conflict, saying American and Israeli forces were continuing their military campaign.
