Marco Rubio: “We've tried and we'll continue to try to see if we can, you know, find a middle ground that brings this about.”

We do not want to be overly dependent on any country in the world.

We’re never going to allow Cuba to become a base of operation against American interests or pose a threat to our national security. On that we are abundantly clear.

I expect that the Government of India will always put the people of India first and that you will always put the national interest of India first.

We are hopeful that Cuba will choose a different path. We are hopeful … that there will be some people in there that open their eyes to the reality of what they’re facing.
