Cuba 'rejects' Trump's Guantanamo Bay migrant housing plan
The Cuban Foreign Ministry said it "rejects" Trump's decision to use Naval Station Guantanamo Bay as a migrant facility, warning that altering the stability could cause serious consequences.
"It is a demonstration of the brutality with which that government is acting to supposedly correct problems created by the economic and social conditions of that country, the government's own management and its foreign policy, including hostility towards countries of origin," the ministry said in a statement.
The "irresponsible use" of the military installation "would threaten peace and lend itself to errors, accidents and misinterpretations that could alter stability and cause serious consequences," the statement added.
Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to permit the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security to use Guantanamo Bay to house up to 30,000 migrants.
