US President Donald Trump stated at an event in Florida that the United States could occupy Cuba — almost immediately and without much effort.
«On the way back from Iran, we will have one of our big ships, perhaps the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln — the largest in the world. It will stop about 100 yards from the shore, and they (Cuban authorities — NN) will say: 'Thank you very much. We surrender,' — said Trump.
The audience laughed — it's unclear whether the president meant a real plan or was joking.
