President Donald Trump has indicated that Cuba could become the next focus of U.S. military attention following the ongoing operations against Iran.
The statement was made during a White House event on Thursday, where Trump hosted players and officials from Inter Miami CF, the 2025 Major League Soccer champions. Addressing an audience that included many individuals of Cuban heritage from the Miami area, Trump suggested that once the current situation in Iran is resolved, the administration might turn its efforts toward Cuba.
Trump provided an update on the escalating military conflict in the Middle East, noting that American and Israeli forces continue their campaign against Iran, which has involved significant hostilities over the past week.
In his remarks, Trump alluded to potential future actions regarding Cuba, stating: “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.”
The comments come amid a broader context of heightened U.S. military involvement abroad, including recent joint operations with Israel targeting Iranian assets, leadership, and capabilities. Trump's offhand reference to Cuba appeared tailored to resonate with the Cuban-American community present at the event.
No specific timeline or details on potential actions against Cuba were provided, and the remarks were framed as contingent on concluding efforts in Iran. The statement has drawn attention given the ongoing regional tensions and reports of retaliatory actions spreading across the Middle East and beyond.
No immediate official clarification or response from the White House or other administration officials regarding the Cuba comments was noted in connection with the event.
