Cuban ruler Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez stated that Cuba and other countries face "arrogance, hubris, and contempt" from foreign nations, particularly from the United States, during an official meeting with Argentine leader Juan Grabois at the Palace of the Revolution.
According to the official report from Canal Caribe, Díaz-Canel thanked Grabois, founder of the Patria Grande Party in Argentina, and emphasized the willingness to strengthen relations and share experiences on topics such as the popular economy and gender issues.
During the dialogue, the Cuban leader and the Argentine social leader discussed what they described as the dangers of "American imperialism" and the worsening of the international context following the recent U.S. military aggression in Venezuela, which resulted in the capture of the dictator Nicolás Maduro.
They also discussed what the leader referred to as an energy blockade imposed by Donald Trump against Cuba, although he omitted that this initiative seeks the expulsion of the nation from the totalitarian regime.
Díaz-Canel maintained the old, tiresome rhetoric that in the face of these "threats," unity among social movements and progressive forces is essential, emphasizing that conflicts like those in Gaza, Venezuela, and Cuba are the result of policies that, in his view, reflect a disdain for countries and hinder continental development.
The leader stated that this alleged "arrogance and overbearing attitude" hinders the region's progress and urged for better coordination among social movements to confront what he described as a hostile international context.
