Washington, March 27 (Xinhua) — US President Donald Trump on Friday threatened that Cuba would be the next target after American strikes on Venezuela and Iran.

“Cuba is next,” said D. Trump at the Future Investment Initiative investment forum in Miami, Florida.

On January 3, the US military launched a large-scale operation against Venezuela and captured Nicolás Maduro, the president of the oil-rich South American country. On February 28, the US, in conjunction with Israel, launched massive strikes against Iran, which continue to this day.

Cuba is experiencing a severe economic and energy crisis caused by years of US sanctions. According to the UN, fuel shortages are plunging the country into a humanitarian crisis.

Earlier this month, D. Trump threatened that Cuba would "fall very soon," but "right now" his administration would focus on war with Iran. –0–

Kyiv, March 28 (Xinhua) – Ukraine is ready for trilateral talks between Ukraine, the United States, and Russia, anywhere. This was reported on Friday by the Interfax-Ukraine news agency, citing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

As V. Zelensky noted in a television program, the Ukrainian side communicates with the American side "daily," but there is a "complexity"—the feeling that Ukraine is a mediator in the negotiation process, not a party to the conflict.

The Ukrainian president explained that Ukraine favors trilateral meetings and is ready to hold talks in any country. However, due to tensions in the Middle East, the American side is currently not traveling abroad for security reasons and can only hold meetings in the United States. However, "Russia is ready to meet anywhere except America."

"We are working to ensure that meetings take place, somewhere here, in Europe, in Turkey, in Switzerland, anywhere. We are ready for the Middle East," Zelenskyy emphasized.

At a briefing on Thursday, Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia expects to continue negotiations on a settlement in Ukraine as soon as circumstances permit. According to him, the key issues of critical interest to the Russian side regarding the Ukrainian settlement have not yet been agreed upon.

The previous stage of peace talks involving Ukraine, the United States, and Russia took place on February 17-18 in Geneva, Switzerland. Prior to that, the meetings had been held in Abu Dhabi, UAE. –0–

JINAN, March 28 (Xinhua) — An investigation report was released on Friday into the fatal explosion at a chemical plant in Gaomi City, Shandong Province, east China. The incident has been classified as a "major accident caused by poor industrial safety," local authorities said.

The explosion that occurred at Shandong Youdao Chemical Co., Ltd. on May 27, 2025, killed 12 people, injured 19, and caused direct economic losses of 58.6 million yuan (approximately US$8.48 million).

According to the report, the explosion was caused by technical malfunctions, unauthorized use of low-quality raw materials, and improper selection of equipment for transporting materials.

The investigation found that other causes of the explosion included a lack of risk control measures, formal inspections for hidden hazards, and illegal construction and production work. The report also noted that local government agencies and the Party Committee failed to fulfill their oversight and control responsibilities.

The report calls for 10 people, including the general director of a chemical plant, to be held criminally liable, and for party, administrative, and organizational penalties to be applied to 49 people, including officials of the city's chemical industry development service center. -0-

BEIJING, March 28 (Xinhua) — Zhai Shichen, spokesperson for the People's Liberation Army's Southern Zone Combat Command (SZCC), on Friday called on the Philippines to strictly control the activities of its navy and air force and immediately stop provocative and risky actions and slanderous propaganda.

On March 25, PLA Navy ship 532 was conducting a routine patrol in waters under Chinese jurisdiction near Zhubi Reef in the Nansha Islands, he said.

He said that after spotting the Philippine Navy ship, the Chinese ship established radio contact to warn the Philippine vessel.

Despite repeated radio reminders from China, Philippine ship 507, located on the port side of PLA Navy ship 532, adjusted its course to starboard and then deliberately turned in the same direction, coming dangerously close to the Chinese ship and disrupting its navigation. PLA Navy ship 532 then took professional and standardized actions, successfully avoiding an accident.

Zhai Shichen stated that the Philippine Navy vessel's actions were unsafe and unprofessional, which could easily have led to a maritime incident. "What's worse, the Philippine side, shifting blame, falsely accused the Chinese ship of 'dangerous approach,'" he said.

The PLA South China Sea (SCS) forces are always on high alert and will resolutely defend the territorial sovereignty and security of the state, as well as peace and stability in the South China Sea (SCS), Zhai Shichen emphasized. -0
