Trump Condemns Cuba at U.N. General Assembly; Havana Delegates Walk Out in Protest

The Cuban delegation departed the United Nations General Assembly hall following President Donald Trump’s remarks. Washington has confirmed its intention to maintain unprecedented pressure on Havana.

The Cuban delegation left the chamber as a protest against remarks made by the U.S. president, who labeled Cuba a “completely failed state.”

Additionally, Trump reaffirmed Washington’s policy of applying unprecedented pressure on Havana. He also noted that U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is currently engaged in negotiations with Cuban authorities.

In early September 2026, the United States imposed new sanctions targeting institutions linked to Cuba’s industrial and resource extraction sectors. Rubio cited Cuba’s alleged threat to American national security as justification for the measures.
