The meeting of the General Assembly of the United Nations, on Tuesday, during the review of the annual resolution of the sanctions on Havana, was accompanied by tension and a fierce verbal confrontation between Mike Waltz, the ambassador of the United States, and Bruno Rodriguez, the foreign minister of Cuba. While Waltz stood behind the lectern of the General Assembly and accused the leaders of the Castro regime of financial corruption and enjoying luxury properties, Rodriguez took to his podium shouting "liar" to prevent him from continuing his speech. An action that received a sharp response from Waltz, who told him: "Stand back. This isn't Havana, and you can't scare me on American soil."
