Sandro Castro, the controversial grandson of the late dictator, has once again made one of his contentious statements.

After participating in a Q&A session on Instagram, the entrepreneurial grandson stated in one of his stories that “it would be ideal,” in response to the question “what do you think about reaching an agreement with the U.S. and addressing the issues affecting the people.”

Sandro also, in one of his usual "pearls" aimed at Díaz-Canel, responded: "always with my people," to the question "are you with the people or with you-know-who?"

Possible dialogue with the U.S.

This Saturday, the President of the United States, Donald Trump, sent a direct message to the Cuban regime, stating that his administration is willing to engage in dialogue with Havana, but from a position of strength and without concessions to the communism that has ruled the Island for over sixty years.

"I believe we are going to make a deal with Cuba. We will be nice, but we have a very bad situation there," Trump stated, referring to the economic and energy crisis the country is facing, exacerbated by the end of Venezuelan oil supplies and the recent suspension of crude oil shipments from Mexico at the request of Washington by President Claudia Sheinbaum.

The message was interpreted as a direct warning to the regime formally headed by Miguel Díaz-Canel, but controlled by Raúl Castro and the military leadership of GAESA, responsible for maintaining a repressive and economically unviable system.

Sources close to the U.S. government believe that Trump's words signal the beginning of a new phase in policy towards Cuba, characterized by diplomatic pressure, the international isolation of the regime, and support for an internal change process.

Cuba has no money, no oil, the leader insisted, recalling that for years the regime survived thanks to the resources of Venezuela, a flow that has completely stopped following the fall of Nicolás Maduro and the collapse of chavismo.

The president emphasized that any future negotiations with Havana must be based on respect for human rights, the release of political prisoners, and an end to military control over the economy. “We will be kind, but things have to change,” he reiterated.
