The White House announced that President Donald Trump will sign an order accusing Cuba of maintaining close relations with Iran and Hezbollah.
In this context, a White House spokeswoman confirmed in a statement to Al-Sharq that negotiations with Iran are continuing, with the aim of ensuring American national security in the short and long term.
She added that Trump clearly stressed that Iran cannot possess a nuclear weapon.
This position comes in the context of continued American pressure on Iran, combining diplomatic track and political militancy, as Washington stresses that any potential agreement must ensure that Tehran is prevented from possessing a nuclear weapon.
The inclusion of Cuba in this context also reflects an expansion of the circle of confrontation, by linking it to regional networks that the United States considers a threat to its national security, at a time when negotiations continue amid increasing regional field and political complexities.
