President ​Donald Trump said ‌on Sunday (March 15, 2026) that the ​United States ⁠could soon reach a deal with Cuba or ‌take other action, signalling that ‌developments in the long-strained ‌relationship ⁠may come ⁠quickly. “Cuba also wants to make a deal, ​and I ‌think we will pretty soon either make a deal or ‌do whatever we ​have to do,” Mr. Trump said. “We’re talking ⁠to Cuba, but we’re going to ‌do Iran before Cuba.”The comments come as tensions between Washington and Havana remain elevated following ‌years of sanctions, diplomatic friction ​and disputes over migration and ⁠security, with regional allies and ⁠investors watching closely for signs ‌of a policy shift.
