NBC: Trump is growing impatient as Cuban regime clings to power
Trump is pressing advisers for faster results as sanctions and aid offers fail to force a collapse, while officials say Havana could still fall by year’s end.
- President Donald Trump has grown frustrated with Cuba's resilience to U.S. pressure, prompting the Pentagon to update contingency plans for possible military action against the island.

- Military intelligence-gathering flights near Havana have increased in recent weeks, while new sanctions target GAESA, the state-controlled conglomerate Rubio described as the "heart of Cuba's kleptocratic communist system."
- Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez warned this week the United States is on a "dangerous path" that could lead to "bloodbath," stating the country's political system is "not on the table."
