Despite his apparent rejection of a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and reports that the U.S. military is beefing up its Cuba-facing Southern Command, President Donald Trump appeared optimistic that both hostilities in the Middle East and tensions in the Caribbean will soon come to an end.

"I would say that Cuba and us will make a deal. I don't think we'll need the military. Cuba is failing very badly, we want to help Cuba. We want to open Cuba up to our people, we have great Cuban Americans that want to go back", Trump told reporters on Saturday.
