Blinken says 'grievous mistake' for Cuba president to blame US for unrest

Description

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken says that Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel is wrong to blame the United States for historic protests over the weekend. "It would be a grievous mistake for the Cuban regime to interpret what is happening in dozens of towns and cities across the island as a result or product of anything the United States has done," Blinken tells reporters.
