Hegseth says Pentagon 'postured' for 'any possible contingency' in Cuba

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth issued a stark warning for Cuban leadership while on the ground in Guantanamo Bay, telling American soldiers that the U.S. military is “prepared and postured” for any moves they may have to make against the communist island country.

“What happens with the future of Cuba is in the hands of the President of the United States and the leadership of Cuba. No matter what, the Department of War is going to be prepared and postured for any possible contingency,” Hegseth told a lineup of U.S. Navy servicemen on Wednesday.
