As reported in the Guardian and Reuters, Cuba has announced the uncovering of a human trafficking ring operating in Cuba to serve Russian military efforts by procuring mercenaries.
Cuba's Foreign Minister Rodríguez stated emphatically that, "Cuba is not part of the war in Ukraine." The statement went on to explain that Havana is dismantling the illegal network.
As cited in the Guardian, the Minister said, “Cuba has a firm and clear historical position against the use of mercenaries … Cuba is not part of the war in Ukraine.”
The news is consistent with the view that Russia is running out of mercenaries being in conflict with the Wagner Group, post its rebellion, as we reported.
