Trump vows to deal with Cuba after Iran gets settled

FORT MYERS, Florida, Oct 24: US President Donald Trump on Friday used a campaign rally in Florida, where Cuban Americans are a potent voting bloc, to vow to address his concerns about Cuba once the Iran war is settled.

In a 90-minute speech in Fort Myers, Trump repeated more military action against Iran may lie ahead as he tries to address the causes of a spike in oil prices that has put Republicans on the defensive ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.

With an eye toward the senior Americans who live in Florida, Trump said he planned to spend $250 million to hire at least 5,000 new nurses in elder care facilities all across America.

While the Iran war has no end in sight, Trump talked tough about Cuba, part of a pattern of putting pressure on the communist government there after ousting the leader of Venezuela early this year.�" REUTERS
