WASHINGTON – The Biden administration on Wednesday urged Cuba to implement substantial reforms immediately, describing the communist nation as a deteriorating regime while stopping short of demanding leadership changes.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed reporters about the situation during a Wednesday briefing, characterizing Cuba’s current state as unstable.
“They are a regime that is falling. Their country is collapsing and that’s why we believe it’s in their best interest to make very dramatic changes very soon,” Leavitt stated during the press conference.
The press secretary emphasized America’s commitment to promoting democratic values throughout the region, expressing the administration’s desire to witness thriving democratic nations across the Western Hemisphere. However, Leavitt declined to elaborate on specific measures the United States might pursue to achieve these goals.
