Cuba Rejects Extremist Organizations and Offers New Framework for Cooperation with the US

In early February 2026, Cuban diplomacy presented an ambitious proposal to strengthen regional security. The position reflects Havana’s determination to distance itself from any suspicion of involvement with extremist groups while extending a hand to the United States for collaboration on critical international security issues.

Zero Tolerance Policy Against Extremist Organizations

The official statement from the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs made it clear that there is a complete rejection of any form of terrorism and the presence of extremist organizations within its territory. According to information released by the Jin10 platform, Cuba emphasized the absence of any state support for radical groups or terrorist activities.

The commitment goes beyond mere diplomatic rhetoric. The country has committed to implementing a zero-tolerance policy against terrorism financing, establishing rigorous mechanisms to detect and combat money laundering operations. This stance reflects Cuba’s willingness to align its practices with international standards for financial security.

Technical Cooperation on Multiple Fronts

Cuba proposed an ambitious technical cooperation plan with Washington involving six strategic areas: counter-terrorism, anti-money laundering, drug trafficking, cybersecurity, human trafficking, and financial crime. The proposal represents a significant shift in Cuba’s posture regarding the possibility of dialogue with the United States on security issues.

To achieve these objectives, Havana committed to strengthening its internal legal framework, creating more solid institutional bases to support bilateral cooperation agreements. This initiative signals that Cuba aims to consolidate its international credibility by demonstrating its capacity and willingness to combat threats that transcend borders, whether linked to extremist groups or organized crime.
