Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Barella, condemning the US actions to cut off the country's fuel supply, emphasized that Washington is trying to impose difficult living conditions on the Cuban people through an energy blockade.
The Cuban Foreign Minister strongly condemned the recent US actions and its efforts to prevent the country's fuel supply, saying that these policies are aimed at pressuring the Cuban people and imposing difficult living conditions.
He wrote in a message on the social network "X": We strongly condemn the new escalation of US actions against Cuba. Washington is now seeking to impose a complete blockade on our country's fuel supply.
The Cuban Foreign Minister stressed: Cuba is steadfast in the face of the new measures taken by the Trump administration against itself. We are a revolutionary people and we will always be ready to fight.
Rodriguez said: "We condemn in the strongest terms the new escalation of tensions by the United States against Cuba. Washington is seeking a complete blockade of fuel shipments to Cuba. The United States justifies this action with a series of lies aimed at portraying Cuba as a threat to regional security.
These statements come as US President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order that imposes additional customs tariffs on goods imported from countries that directly or indirectly sell or supply petroleum products to Cuba.
This decision was made in the context of the intensification of US hostile policies against Havana and comes at a time when tensions and unilateral actions by Washington in the Latin American and Caribbean region are increasing.
