Cuba’s top diplomat to the United States says recent sanctions targeting the island's leadership and the indictment of former President Raúl Castro are a “pretext” for the Trump administration to persuade the American people to support a U.S. military intervention in Cuba. In an interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday, Ambassador Lianys Torres Rivera complained bitterly that the U.S. is targeting Cuban civilians with its decades-old embargo and new blockade of energy shipments to the island. She described the situation as “a war without bombs.” Trump has been threatening military action in Cuba for months, while his energy blockade has choked off fuel shipments.
