For decades, Cuba has been the world capital for radical left-wing terrorism. The regime in Havana has recruited, trained and backed violent Marxist and third-worldist movements across our hemisphere and beyond. Today, we are targeting the network that enables and funds Cuba's subversive and radical operations.
Pursuant to sanctions authorities created by President Trump’s groundbreaking Cuba Executive Order, I am designating the following entities:
Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Cuba (MINFAR)
Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples (ICAP)
Amistur Cuba S.A.
Committees for the Defense of the Revolution (CDR)
Minera La Victoria S.A.
Anyone providing services to these sanctioned actors is at risk of sanctions themselves. Foreign banks and other companies that provide services to these entities should freeze those activities.
The Trump Administration will no longer tolerate radical Marxist regimes in our hemisphere seeking to threaten U.S. national security and engage in influence operations to export their poisonous and evil “revolution” to our country and around the world.

“Today, pursuant to President Trump’s Executive Order (E.O.) 14404 of May 1, 2026, “Imposing Sanctions on Those Responsible for Repression in Cuba and for Threats to United States National Security and Foreign Policy,” I am designating five Cuban entities and five individuals who sustain the regime’s malicious campaign to subvert and destabilize U.S. national security.
“Havana has served as a forward operating base for global irregular warfare against U.S. interests, recruiting, training, and equipping violent left-wing militants across our region – including Marxist terrorist groups in the United States
…
“These targets include President of Cuba Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermudez, Castro family member and representative Alejandro Castro Espín….
… “today I am sanctioning the Ministry of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Cuba (MINFAR).”
“The U.S. State Department imposed new sanctions Thursday on Cuba’s leader, Miguel Díaz-Canel, and his family, along with Alejandro Castro Espín, the son of Raúl Castro.” —> “was the key Cuban negotiator with the Obama administration to establish diplomatic relations”
… “The Trump administration has chosen a different person to negotiate with this time in the Castro family — Raúl Castro’s grandson, Raúl Guillermo Rodríguez Castro.”
As Vice Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) is one of Congress's most prominent figures investigating Havana Syndrome. He treats these incidents as hostile directed-energy attacks on U.S. personnel and has consistently pushed for robust federal compensation and aggressive investigations into the perpetrators.
Financial and Medical Support: Rubio co-authored the HAVANA Act of 2021, which authorizes the CIA and State Department to provide financial support and medical care for American public servants suffering from traumatic brain injuries connected to the syndrome.

Put Hasan's head on a Pike?
I'm surprised GAESA wasn't mentioned...
The cat's already out of the bag on that one...
u/#coup
good point on the GAESA, last month’s sanctions, so June 4th’s sanctuons = 2nd round
someday the Pepe band & dancer will get to dance in Cuba, maybe performing for Gitmo troops first

great work, connecting Sec. Rubio’s research on the Havana Syndrome!
Perfect example of the conditions in Cuba reflects in California and other states that the Leftist Communist control
