U.S. names the Cuban regime as the root of far-left terror networks

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio publicly identified the Cuban regime as the root of the far-left terror networks operating across the hemisphere and beyond.

In his words: “The Cuban regime’s sprawling intelligence and ideological network helped to build the far-left in our country and in our hemisphere, and it remains inextricably linked to the far-left groups and movements across and beyond the West.”

Rubio described how these networks operate transnationally: “Today’s far-left terrorists can raise money in one country. They can host their communications in a second country. They can receive training in a third country. They can recruit militants in a fourth country. And then together strike a target in a fifth country. And so we have no choice but to confront this menace together.”

For the Anti-Communist Movement and Defenders of Liberty, these remarks confirm what we have long denounced: the Cuban dictatorship is not only a national tragedy, but the epicenter of a network of repression and ideology that crosses borders. Cuba’s freedom is also a matter of security for the entire hemisphere.
