ICYMI: Rubio Condemns Cuban Agents’ Visit to U.S. Port
Cuban agents in U.S. military headquarters? Not on my watch
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL)
March 3, 2023
Miami Herald
“I gotta talk to you about Cuba.” Viewers wondered what President Joe Biden meant by that comment to his colleague…. Now we can guess what the president was hinting at: a plan to further reestablish ties with the Cuban regime, starting with inviting its security agents to observe security procedures at a working U.S. port….
The Cuban Border Guard and Ministry of Foreign Affairs are high-level entities in a dictatorship classified as a state sponsor of terrorism. Inviting those agents to tour a sensitive U.S. site is, simply put, unconscionable….
That’s why I demanded President Biden cancel the planned visit as soon as I was notified of it…. Floridians rely on maritime and port security to protect us from both the geopolitical threat posed by Cuba…and the illegal importation of drugs, including deadly fentanyl. Anyone can see that sharing coastal and maritime security protocols with the Cuban regime is an egregious betrayal of our state….
I’ve said for years that this administration is staffed by Obama-era holdovers acting as caretakers of America’s decline…. Delisting Cuba as a state sponsor of terrorism is the logical next step in their eyes. In reality, it’s a terrible idea and one that policymakers should do everything in their power to prevent. It’s the reason why I’ve reintroduced my FORCE Act.
Meanwhile, those of us in Washington who still subscribe to common sense must work to protect our soil and ports from the agents of adversarial regimes…. It’s the least Floridians and the Cuban-American community deserve.
