Donald Trump said “Cuba’s next” while discussing the ongoing conflict in Iran at an investment forum in Miami, Florida on Friday (27 March).
Trump, who highlighted US military actions in Venezuela and Iran, said the country’s approach is “peace through strength” and claimed the US has been “very, very successful.”
“I built this great military. I said, ‘you’ll never have to use it,’ but sometimes you have to use it, And Cuba’s next,” he said, adding jokingly that reporters should “pretend I didn’t say that.”
Trump’s comment came just hours after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with his G7 counterparts in Paris, France, to discuss developments in the island nation.
