哥斯达黎加关闭驻古巴大使馆并下令外交官撤离

哥斯达黎加周三关闭了其驻哈瓦那大使馆,并要求古巴共产党政府将其外交官从圣何塞撤离。

“我们必须从美洲清除共产党人,”哥斯达黎加总统罗德里戈·查韦斯在外交关系破裂后宣称。

古巴驻美国大使馆在社交媒体帖子中回应此次关闭,称哥斯达黎加此举是“在美国的压力下”做出的。

哥斯达黎加领导层与特朗普总统结盟,后者最近暗示可能“接管”古巴。这个岛国的共产党政府已面临数月的美国强烈压力,并且在严重能源短缺下经济持续疲软。该国本周面临全岛性停电,上周还报道发生了抗议活动。

哥斯达黎加外交部长阿诺尔多·安德烈·蒂诺科引用对古巴“人权状况持续恶化,以及针对公民、活动人士和异见人士的镇压行为增加”的“深切关切”作为理由。

蒂诺科表示:“我们已决定……关闭哥斯达黎加驻古巴共和国大使馆。同时,我们已要求古巴外交部将其外交人员从圣何塞大使馆撤离,领事官员除外。”

在此之前,另一位特朗普盟友厄瓜多尔已于3月4日驱逐了古巴大使巴西利奥·古铁雷斯,指控其干涉该国内部政治事务并从事“暴力活动”。

特朗普周日表示,古巴和美国政府正在谈判,“我认为我们很快要么达成协议,要么采取任何必要行动。”总统尚未具体说明他对古巴的计划。

特朗普周二对记者说:“我们很快就会对古巴采取行动。”

周一,特朗普还表示:“无论我是解放它还是接管它,我认为我可以对它做任何想做的事。”

古巴总统米格尔·迪亚斯-卡内尔·贝穆德斯周二晚在社交媒体上回应特朗普的言论称:“任何外部侵略者都将遭遇坚不可摧的抵抗。”

Costa Rica shutters its embassy in Cuba and orders diplomats to leave

Costa Rica on Wednesday closed its embassy in Havana and told Cuba’s communist government to pull its diplomats from San José.

“We have to clean out communists from the hemisphere,” Costa Rican President Rodrigo Chaves declared after the diplomatic rupture.

The Cuban Embassy in the U.S. responded to the closure by alleging in a social media post that Costa Rica made the move “under pressure from the United States.”

Costa Rica’s leadership is allied with President Trump, who has recently suggested he may “take” Cuba. The island nation’s communist government has faced months of intense U.S. pressure and has languished under severe energy shortages. The country faced island-wide power blackouts this week, and protests were reported last week.

Costa Rican Foreign Minister Arnoldo Andre Tinoco cited “deep concern” about the “sustained deterioration of the human rights situation on Cuba, as well as the increase in acts of repression against citizens, activists and dissidents.”

“We have made the decision to proceed … with the closure of the Costa Rican embassy in the Republic of Cuba,” Tinoco said. “Likewise, we have requested that the Cuban Foreign Ministry withdraw its diplomatic personnel from the embassy in San Jose, with the exception of consular officials.”

In doing so, Costa Rica follows in the footsteps of another Trump ally, Ecuador, which on March 4 expelled Cuba’s ambassador, Basilio Gutierrez, accusing him of interfering in the country’s internal political affairs and engaging in “violent activities.”

Mr. Trump said Sunday that the Cuban and U.S. governments are talking, and “I think we will pretty soon either make a deal or do whatever we have to do.” The president hasn’t specified what his plans are for Cuba.

“We’ll be doing something with Cuba very soon,” Mr. Trump told reporters Tuesday.

And on Monday, Mr. Trump said, “Whether I free it, take it, I think I could do anything I want with it.”

Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez responded to Mr. Trump’s statements by writing on social media late Tuesday that “any external aggressor will clash with an impregnable resistance.”
