Havana - Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel has accused his US counterpart, Donald Trump, of being threatening, manipulative and shameless on Twitter.

Trump, clinging to the US meddling tradition, issued a threatening, manipulative and shameless message against Cuba on May 20, marking the proclamation of the neocolonial republic. We will not return to that past and we will firmly defend independence', wrote the Head of State in his account @DiazCanelB.

US President posted a tweet on Moday which disrespects Cuba's sovereignty, questions its ties with Venezuela and once again meddles in the Cuba´s internal affairs.

On May 20, 1902, the neocolonial Republic was proclaimed, presided over by the government of Tomas Estrada Palma, under the aegis of US military intervention in Cuba.
