Cuba on Wednesday accused the U.S. government of encouraging new anti-government activities as the latest evidence of the U.S. subversive strategy to overthrow the Cuban government.
Anti-government groups, instigated by U.S. diplomats in Havana, have intensified their moves in recent weeks to organize and fund provocative actions in Cuba, in violation of a bilateral accord and the international law, the Cuban Foreign Ministry was quoted by the official daily Granma as saying.
The ministry accused U.S. diplomats of giving personal attention to counter-revolutionary ring leaders, visiting their homes and conducting semi-clandestine meetings to provide instructions.
It also denounced the journalism courses given by professors from a university in Florida, saying the courses were hostile to the Cuban government.
The U.S. is helping organize new illegal activities in the Caribbean island and "it is instigating its mercenaries in Cuba to stage provocative activities in the streets around July 4 (U.S. Independence Day)," the ministry said.
These actions are proof of the U.S. administration's despair at repeated failures of its anti-Cuba actions, it added.
The ministry called on the United States to stop such interference, vowing that Cuba will not tolerate the continuation of those provocative and illegal acts.
