Cuban President Miguel DÃaz-Canel says there are no current talks with the US government, responding to President Donald Trump's threats to cut off oil and money to Cuba. Trump warned Cuba to "make a deal, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE" after the US captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. DÃaz-Canel emphasized Cuba's independence, stating they're only in technical contact with the US on migration issues. He stressed that relations should be based on international law, not hostility or threats. Cuba's economy is struggling, relying heavily on Venezuelan oil, which is now uncertain.
According to Amit Segal, Adam Boehler's efforts as Trump's special envoy for hostage affairs have been met with criticism.
Boehler's talks with Hamas, which some consider delusional, have failed to yield results.
Instead, the delegation leaving tomorrow will discuss a new outline proposed by Witkoff, a senior figure, which demands the release of half of the hostages in exchange for a ceasefire.
Notably, Israel views the direct talks with Hamas as a one-time event, and Trump remains resolute in his belief that Hamas must be destroyed.
