The Cuban government has restated its firm opposition to terrorism and renewed its call for enhanced cooperation with the United States and other countries to address regional and global security threats.
In a statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Cuba said it unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and stressed that it neither harbors nor supports terrorist or extremist groups.
The government also reaffirmed its strict stance against terrorist financing and money laundering, noting that it adheres to international standards aimed at preventing and combating illicit financial activities.
Cuba clarified that any previous contacts with individuals later designated as terrorists were limited, humanitarian in nature, and connected to internationally recognized peace efforts, undertaken at the request of relevant governments and in a transparent manner.
Rejecting claims that it poses a security threat to the United States, Havana emphasized that it does not host foreign military or intelligence bases and has never supported hostile actions against Washington.
The country further pledged that its territory would not be used to undermine the security of any other nation.
The statement expressed Cuba’s willingness to revive and broaden bilateral cooperation with the United States in addressing shared transnational challenges. Proposed areas of collaboration include counterterrorism, prevention of money laundering, drug trafficking, cybersecurity, human trafficking, and other financial crimes.
Cuba noted that past cooperation between both countries had produced positive outcomes when there was mutual political will. It also reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening its legal and institutional frameworks to support international security efforts.
According to the Foreign Ministry, constructive engagement and lawful cooperation benefit both Cuban and American citizens. The government reiterated its readiness to maintain respectful dialogue with the U.S. administration, grounded in mutual interests, international law, and peaceful coexistence.
