Russia has strongly criticized the United States for imposing new restrictions on Cuba, calling them unacceptable. The US executive order, threatening tariffs on countries supplying oil to Cuba, has drawn sharp condemnation. The move is seen as part of a long-standing US strategy to economically pressure Cuba.
Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla has declared an “international emergency” in response to the US tariff threats. He views the situation as a serious threat originating from the US right-wing. The minister warns that this threat not only endangers national security but also global peace and humanity’s survival in the face of nuclear and climate challenges.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has pledged to support Cuba amidst the US tariff decree. She emphasizes Mexico’s commitment to sovereignty and self-determination, expressing concerns about potential humanitarian crises in Cuba. Mexico plans to engage with the US State Department to address the repercussions in the region.
