The administration of President Donald Trump would not only be increasing pressure on the Cuban regime, but it would also have begun to explore potential leadership scenarios for a later stage, according to a report from the magazine The Atlantic.

The medium pointed out that officials in Washington have discussed the possibility of considering Cuban American Republican donors as potential players in a transition scenario on the island.

Although no specific names are mentioned, the information suggests that preliminary conversations have already taken place regarding profiles that could play a role in a potential shift in the political landscape.

More than a definitive decision, it would involve internal assessments within a broader framework, characterized by ongoing negotiations, economic pressure, and a profound crisis in Cuba.

In this regard, the report suggests that some sectors of the U.S. administration are not only considering how to enforce changes in the short term but also how to manage a subsequent scenario.

This approach introduces an additional element in the analysis of the current moment. Until now, the focus has been on the conversations between both governments and the possible demands from Washington, such as economic reforms or compensation for confiscated properties.

However, the possibility of considering profiles for a later stage points to a broader planning approach, although it remains subject to multiple uncertainties. The report from The Atlantic emphasizes that any evolution will largely depend on political decisions that have not yet been made and the development of ongoing contacts.

For its part, the Cuban regime has reiterated that it is not willing to negotiate key aspects such as the political system or internal control, which limits the scope of any dialogue.

In this context, the so-called “exile factor” begins to emerge as an additional variable within a complex scenario, where external pressure, internal crisis, and nascent discussions about the political future of the island coincide.
