Trump predicts US and Cuba will reach a deal as Cuba condemns US oil blockade at UN
US President Donald Trump told reporters on September 26, 2026 that the US and Cuba would reach an agreement and that military action would not be necessary. Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez addressed the UN General Assembly the same day, condemning the US oil blockade as collective punishment while expressing openness to dialogue without preconditions. The Trump administration has imposed an oil blockade on Cuba since earlier in 2026, compounding pressure from the longstanding 60-year economic embargo.
