Donald Trump is exploring options for the use of force.
The US is considering a military operation in Cuba to change the government, but diplomatic methods are still given priority.
This is reported by Politico.
According to the publication's sources, Washington may refuse to completely dismantle the existing regime, but expects the resignation of a number of high-ranking officials.
One of the interlocutors noted that the Donald Trump administration is studying options for the use of so-called "kinetic force," that is, military measures to overthrow the Cuban government.
The situation is developing amid pressure from the influential Cuban-American diaspora in Florida, which insists on the complete removal of Cuba's communist leadership. At the same time, the Trump administration appears to be ready to consider less radical scenarios.
Sources say that at the moment the US is relying on diplomatic tools and trying to persuade the Cuban authorities to make changes, primarily in the economy.
As Politico notes, Donald Trump and representatives of his administration have said that they may be satisfied with a compromise involving economic reforms in Cuba.
