Cuba complained that Washington did not discredit the reports that cite US intelligence as a source
EFE/14ymedio, Havana, 26 August 2024 –The Cuban government called “unfounded” the accusations that appeared in several local media in Florida, which point to Havana’s attempts to influence the local elections in South Florida. On Wednesday, the Mayor of Miami-Dade County, Daniella Levine Cava, was re-elected in the first round with more than 57% of the vote.
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejects the accusation in the most categorical terms,” the Cuban Foreign Ministry stressed in a statement. It “deplores” the fact that Washington has not disqualified the versions published in the press that cite US intelligence as a source.
The Foreign Ministry stated that there is no “evidence or indication” that Cuba “has interfered or has proposed to interfere” in the elections in Florida, or that it is favoring any politician in that state. “Any reference in this regard is absolutely false,” it added.
