Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall set to become first royals to visit in Cuba in 60 years.

Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall will become the first royals to set foot in Cuba in 60 years when they land in the Communist country on Sunday as part of their 13-day tour of the Caribbean.

It comes as US President Donald Trump has threatened to tighten sanctions against Cuba, branding Havana part of a "troika of tyranny" along with leftist Latin American allies Venezuela and Nicaragua.

Clarence House said the visit to the island ruled by Fidel Castro for 49 years was to “highlight the growing bilateral relationship with the UK and showcase some of the cultural links between the two countries”. Britain is currently seeking alternative trading partners to the EU post Brexit.

The US is fuming:

Former Florida governor and now US Sen. Rick Scott has written to British Prime Minister Theresa May to protest the royal visit and is perplexed by the timing: "Why would the British government want to recognize Juan Guaido as the new President of Venezuela when we all know the Castro regime is the one propping up Maduro, dictator in Venezuela... and then at the same time have the Prince, who has unbelievable worldwide influence, go prop up the regime?"

Sen. Scott suggested that while in Cuba, Prince Charles should meet with dissidents and take a leaf from President Trump's book: "He says 'I'm going to stand for freedom and democracy' and that's exactly what Prince Charles ought to do."
