The situation has rapidly deteriorated since Donald Trump signed an executive order, threatening to impose tariffs on countries that sell or provide oil to the Caribbean nation.

El portavoz presidencial de #Rusia, Dmitri Peskov, confirmó hoy que su país analiza posibles acciones para apoyar a #Cuba frente a las medidas de asfixias impuestas por los #EstadosUnidos.

«Estamos en contacto con nuestros amigos cubanos. Cuba está lejos por desgracia de nosotros, no es fácil llegar hasta allí, pero, aun así, discutiremos con los cubanos posibles vías para prestar ayuda», destacó el vocero del Kremlin a la prensa.

The U.S. oil siege has worsened an already severe energy crisis in Cuba, forcing many Cubans to resort to cooking over open fires. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2026/02/11/energy/charcoal-solar-panels-cuba/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #energy #cuba #latinamerica #caribbean #solar #energy #renewables #coal #fossilfuels #oil #us

I cannot figure out the end game on the blockade of oil to #Cuba.

They ain't gonna suddenly be democratic, even if they said they were. 6 decades of sanctions.

What is this about anyway?

Trump is fuelling a humanitarian crisis in Cuba, with an oil blockade that is leading to devastating power outages and rationing. This administration is determined to dominate the hemisphere with brute force and naked impunity.

Canada has a long history of good relations with Cuba. We have consistently voted at the UN to end the blockade of Cuba, and millions of Canadian tourists have visited the island.

We should immediately follow Mexico’s lead and condemn this act of economic warfare. And we should step up with humanitarian assistance to the Cuban people, as NDP MP Alexandre Boulerice calls for in this excellent parliamentary petition: https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Details?Petition=e-7082

Prime Minister Carney, silence is not an option when Trump attacks sovereign nations in the Americas. Canadians expect you to stand up for human rights, international law, and against the bullying of smaller nations by a rampaging superpower.
