Expulsion of Cuban diplomats: the island's government escalates its rhetoric

The Cuban government has formally challenged the Dominican Republic's decision to expel members of its diplomatic mission. Authorities in Havana stated that the Dominican government has failed to provide any justification for the removal of the diplomatic personnel, marking a significant escalation in tensions between the two nations.

This diplomatic friction follows recent reports regarding the status of the Cuban mission in the Dominican Republic. The Cuban administration's public response emphasizes a lack of transparency regarding the grounds for the expulsions, signaling a hardening of their stance in the ongoing bilateral dispute.
