(260131) -- HAVANA, Jan. 31, 2026 (Xinhua) -- A car drives past a traffic light no longer in service due to power outage in Havana, Cuba, Jan. 30, 2026.

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel on Friday condemned U.S. President Donald Trump for attempting to "strangle" Cuba's economy through new tariff measures, accusing Washington of escalating its long-standing pressure campaign against the island nation.

"This new measure reveals the fascist, criminal and genocidal nature of a clique that has hijacked the interests of the U.S. people for purely personal ends," he said. (Xinhua/Jiang Biao)
