[Miami Herald] The Trump administration is considering returning Cuba to the list of countries that sponsor terrorism if its government and military continue to support Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, a source with knowledge of the deliberations told el Nuevo Herald."What Cubans are doing in Venezuela is unacceptable," a senior administration official said. "And the United States is evaluating options to address that behavior."
The Obama administration removed Cuba from the list of countries that sponsor terrorism in 2015 ‐ one of the island government’s demands for agreeing to reestablish diplomatic relations. But the Trump administration has increasingly highlighted Cuba’s role in Venezuela and threatened Havana with increased sanctions.
The official said Cuban intelligence operatives in Venezuela have been a "fundamental" factor in the continued support of Maduro by senior Venezuelan armed forces officers.
