Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel has strongly denounced the United States, characterizing it as a "fascist regime" and accusing it of perpetrating "genocide" against Cuba. The president's sharp condemnation highlights the deep-seated animosity and ongoing political friction between the two nations.

His remarks underscore Cuba's persistent criticism of U.S. policies, which Havana views as hostile and aimed at undermining the island's sovereignty. The accusation of "genocide" signals an extreme level of denunciation, reflecting Cuba's long-standing grievances regarding the U.S. embargo and other measures impacting its economy and population.
