US media: Trump administration seeks to weaken Cuba's current leadership

The goal of these maneuvers has been stated as sidelining the current leadership and replacing it with figures who are willing to engage politically with Washington.


According to informed American sources, the Trump administration has yet to arrive at a specific plan for Cuba; however, recent developments in Latin America, particularly the harsh approach toward the Venezuelan government, are regarded by U.S. officials as a warning message for Havana.


Based on these reports, U.S. officials have held meetings in recent months with Cuban exile groups in the United States and some civil society organizations to identify individuals within Cuba's power structure who might be inclined to engage in dialogue with the United States.


Donald Trump has previously announced his hardline stance toward Cuba and warned that opportunities would be lost in the absence of engagement.


Meanwhile, a number of analysts believe that the power structure in Cuba enjoys a high degree of cohesion. Ricardo Zuniga, a former U.S. diplomat, has stated that finding a political partner within the Cuban government for Washington is no easy task.


The tense relations between the United States and Cuba have a history spanning several decades. Since the triumph of the Cuban Revolution in 1959, Washington has consistently opposed the political system of this country and, across various periods, has pursued stringent policies toward Havana.


Despite Cuba's geographical proximity to the state of Florida, the country has witnessed waves of large-scale migration over the years, with hundreds of thousands of its citizens heading to the United States due to economic hardships and political restrictions.

Some American media outlets have reported that the United States government, under the leadership of Donald Trump, has launched fresh efforts to bring about change in Cuba's governing structure.
