According to CCTV, Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez stated that the dialogue between Cuba and the United States does not include the internal affairs or constitutional systems of the two countries and also does not address their respective political, economic, or social models.

Rodriguez emphasized that Cuba is ready to engage in a serious and responsible dialogue with the U.S. government and noted that they are seeking ways to resolve the disagreements between the two countries on the basis of international law and mutual respect for sovereignty.

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel said in a statement on Friday that Cuba has been in contact with the United States to discuss the fundamental differences between the two countries and how they could be resolved through dialogue.

Diaz-Canel also argued that the U.S. energy blockade has placed serious pressure on Cuba, stating that no oil shipments have reached the island for the past three months.
