[Cuba: Cuba and the US Agree to Maintain Communication at the Command Level] The Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces Ministry announced on the 29th that, with mutual agreement, Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces Chief of Staff Roberto Legra Sotorongo and US Southern Command Commander General Donovan met that day. The delegations discussed issues related to security in the demarcation zone surrounding the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base and agreed to maintain communication at the command level. Earlier that day, the US Southern Command announced on its social media that Donovan met with senior Cuban military officials near the US naval base in Guantanamo Bay for a brief exchange on "security matters related to military operations." The United States has long imposed an economic, financial, and trade embargo on Cuba. Following military actions against Venezuela and Iran this year, US President Trump threatened Cuba, saying "Cuba is next," and further increased pressure on Cuba, imposing an oil blockade. According to US media reports on the 27th, the US military deployment against Cuba in the Caribbean Sea has been completed. Meanwhile, dialogue between the US and Cuba continues, but without substantial progress. (Xinhua)
