Cuba: President Miguel Díaz Canel: “Whoever Rises-Up for the Cuban People – Rises-Up for All Time – What is Being Done to Cuba Can Be Done to Anyone!” (4.7.2026)

LDJ: Taking into account this recent history of aggression against Venezuela, against Iran, while these negotiations were taking place, is there fear in Cuba that, at the same time that they are trying to dialogue with the United States, they are plotting?

MDC: There is a perception in Cuba that there is a danger of aggression. A danger of aggression, because they are constantly saying it. We are not saying it, they are saying it.

We have mobilized the population for defense. Every Friday is National Defense Day. The people are preparing. We have updated all the plans for the defense readiness.

We have the example of what it means to know how to defend oneself: the 32 combatants in Venezuela. Those did fight. They were able to stop the action of an elite force of the United States that surpassed them in technology, in numbers, in weapons and, in addition, because of the element of surprise.

Seoul: North Korea “Staggered” at Draconian Nature of US Justice Enforced in ROK! (20.2.2026)

Yoon became the country’s third former president to stand trial on insurrection charges, following former Presidents Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo, who were convicted for military coup and brutal crackdown under martial law.

The Seoul court merged three trials in December last year for eight suspects, including Yoon and seven other senior military and police officials, charged with performing critical duties in the insurrection.

The court handed former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun a 30-year prison sentence, convicting him of performing a significant role in the insurrection.

The special counsel team sought life imprisonment for Kim, whom it called a mastermind who planned and led the insurrection alongside Yoon by mobilizing the military.

Former Defense Intelligence Commander Noh Sang-won and former National Police Agency Commissioner Cho Ji-ho received prison terms of 18 and 12 years, respectively, for their key roles in the insurrection.
