U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz told Cuba’s Minister of Foreign Affairs to “back up!” as the two officials fell into a shouting match on the floor of the U.N. General Assembly.
As Waltz was delivering a speech ridiculing the communist Cuban regime, the Cuban delegation began interrupting Waltz by shouting, banging on their table, and requesting a point of order from the official in charge of the meeting. Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla subsequently rushed to the front of the room while yelling at Waltz, as the two then shouted at each other in front of the General Assembly meeting.
