Cuba unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations, while reaffirming its commitment to cooperate with the United States and other nations to strengthen regional and international security. Cuba categorically states that it does not harbor, support, finance, or permit terrorist or extremist organizations. It has also not supported any hostile activities against that country and will not allow its territory to be used against any other nation. On the contrary, Cuba is willing to reactivate and expand bilateral cooperation with the United States to address shared transnational threats, without ever renouncing the defense of its sovereignty and independence. Cuba proposes to renew technical cooperation with the United States in areas including the fight against terrorism, money laundering prevention, combating drug trafficking, cybersecurity, human trafficking, and financial crimes, and will continue to strengthen its legal framework to support these efforts, conscious that when there has been the will of the parties, progress has been possible on these fronts. The Cuban and American peoples benefit from constructive engagement, cooperation in accordance with the law, and peaceful coexistence. Cuba reaffirms its willingness to maintain a respectful and reciprocal dialogue, oriented toward tangible results, with the Government of the United States, based on mutual interest and international law.
Havana, February 1, 2026.
Our country maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward the financing of terrorism and money laundering and is committed to preventing, detecting, and confronting illicit financial activities, in line with international standards. Any past interaction that involved individuals subsequently designated as terrorists occurred only in limited humanitarian contexts, linked to internationally recognized peace processes, at the request of their respective governments, in full transparency. Cuba does not host foreign military or intelligence bases and rejects the characterization of being a threat to the security of the United States.
