This market will resolve to "Yes" if the United States commences a military offensive intended to establish control over any portion of Cuban land territory by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". For the purposes of this market, land de facto controlled by Cuba or the United States as market creation, will be considered the sovereign territory of that country. The resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible sources.Trader consensus reflects a 78.5% implied probability against a U.S. invasion of Cuba in 2026, anchored by top U.S. military leaders' March 19 confirmation that no rehearsals or preparations for takeover are underway, amid commitments elsewhere like ongoing operations in Iran. President Trump's recent rhetoric signaling "Cuba next" after Iran, coupled with a January executive order intensifying sanctions and oil blockades amid Havana's economic crisis, has prompted Cuban officials to claim military readiness, yet bilateral talks launched mid-March prioritize diplomacy over escalation. Absent verifiable military mobilization or casus belli, historical aversion to direct intervention and potential international backlash sustain the low odds of boots-on-the-ground action before year-end.
