U.S. President Donald Trump said last week tariffs would be imposed on imports from countries that supply Cuba with oil, ratcheting up the pressure on Washington’s long-time foe after ousting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, a key Cuban ally, in early January. Trump said the tariff threat was necessary to protect “U.S. national security and foreign policy from the Cuban regime’s malign actions and policies.” Pope Leo said he had received reports “with great concern” of rising tensions between Cuba and the United States. He joined Cuban bishops in “urging those responsible to promote sincere and effective dialogue to avoid violence and further suffering for the Cuban people,” in comments after his weekly Angelus prayer. 🔗 Leggi su Internazionale.it
