May 11, 2026The #US #blockade of fuel to #Cuba, on top of the longest embargo in modern US history, defies the norms of international law that provide for state sovereignty, nonintervention in domestic affairs and the right of nations to trade freely. It amounts to an economic assault on the basic infrastructure of Cuba, designed to inflict collective punishment on the civilian population by manufacturing a humanitarian crisis in which #HealthCare, running water, agriculture and transportation are no longer available.

#Video - US Voices Against the Blockade Episode 2: Imani Bashir
https://peertube.world/w/oBRgayfhyQKmpGizL1YXZj[from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Duration - 2:02#ImaniBashir is a Black American activist from Washington D.C. She visited to #Cuba following a radical political tradition, one that includes Malcolm X, Assata Shakur, and Kwame Ture, figures who understood the #CubanRevolution as part of a broader struggle for liberation.
For Bashir, visiting Cuba wasn't just political, it was personal. Seeing #AfroCuban people, she says, was seeing people who look like her, who share her history, who have maintained their culture and dignity under decades of sanctions.
Her argument on the #blockade is straightforward: Cuba has never been a threat to the US. It has never put #US safety, its food supply, or resources at stake. "It has only been the other way around," she says.

The Interreligious Dialogue Platform in #Cuba once again raised its voice and prayers to express the concern and rejection of the island's #religious community regarding the current escalation of violence that undermines the self-determination and sovereignty of peoples.

Being a #trans #athlete means carrying more than gloves. It means carrying expectations, fear and responsibility. Malik speaks openly about facing #transphobia and machismo in Sanda’s sport, being pushed past ethical boundaries and the pressure of being the first, knowing that others will come after him. Malik reminds us that trans people don’t need to prove anything. Their existence is already enough.

From beauty to transportation, a lack of water and power forces Cubans to change their routines
https://apnews.com/article/cuba-power-water-routines-trump-us-government-c4e85c4a9236b881667c0e931b2b5576from #AssociatedPress #AP
April 23, 2026 [with video]Severe shortages of water, power and money combined with a #US #energy #blockade have deepened poverty and increased hunger across the island as severe blackouts persist. Even those who are more affluent are now eliminating long-established and often beloved routines as they adapt to increasingly dire realities.
#Cuba’s government has said that the elimination of the U.S. energy #embargo was a top priority for its delegation, calling it an “act of economic coercion” and “unjustified punishment.”

Video - Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA): Normalizing Relations with Cuba Would Benefit People in the US
https://peertube.world/w/7Zy9X4vtuuTLaeQzcPFob9
Duration - 2:53[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
In her visit to Cuba, Rep. #PramilaJayapal (D-WA) says dialogue and cooperation would benefit both countries.
Based on what she observed on the island, Jayapal says the #oil #blockade imposed by the #US government is contributing to a humanitarian crisis in Cuba.
She also pointed to a new letter signed by 52 lawmakers calling for an end to the measure, arguing it reflects a failed US policy toward Cuba.

Video - Why US Policy Toward Cuba Violates International Law
https://peertube.world/w/fa5TjLFy31bJYYftPWiKFg
Duration - 19:24[a #video about #Cuba from the #BellyOfTheBeast]
For more than six decades, #US policy toward #Cuba has relied on #EconomicWarfare instead of diplomacy. The US claims to target the #Cuban government but ends up hurting the lives of millions of civilians.
Int'l law expert Alfred de Zayas speaks to BotB on #Trump’s latest executive order, which allows him to slap tariffs on any country that ships #oil to Cuba, and how the policy violates #InternationalLaw. He explains the difference between #sanctions and unilateral coercive measures, and how the devastating measures are really a form of collective punishment.
“We are witnessing an assault on the #UN Charter, on international law, and on civilization itself,” warns Professor Alfred de Zayas.

Duration - 19:24[a #video about #Cuba from the #BellyOfTheBeast]
For more than six decades, #US policy toward #Cuba has relied on #EconomicWarfare instead of diplomacy. The US claims to target the #Cuban government but ends up hurting the lives of millions of civilians.
Int'l law expert Alfred de Zayas speaks to BotB on #Trump’s latest executive order, which allows him to slap tariffs on any country that ships #oil to Cuba, and how the policy violates #InternationalLaw. He explains the difference between #sanctions and unilateral coercive measures, and how the devastating measures are really a form of collective punishment.
“We are witnessing an assault on the #UN Charter, on international law, and on civilization itself,” warns Professor Alfred de Zayas.

‘Cuba Under Siege: Strategies for United Response’
US-Cuba Normalization Conference Maps Out Action Plan
https://world-outlook.com/2026/03/21/cuba-under-siege-strategies-for-united-response/from #WorldOutlook
March 21, 2026NEW YORK CITY — About 225 delegates representing organizations across the US and Canada attended the conference “Cuba Under Siege: Strategies for Resistance and a United Response.” In welcoming delegates to the meeting, Ike Nahem of the NY-NJ Cuba Sí Coalition, said: “The conference is taking place at an ominous time. A time of imperialist war in the Mideast and intervention in our hemisphere, marked by the January 3 US attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of the country’s president Nicolás Maduro and his wife Celia Flores, and the siege of #Cuba under the #US blockade of #petroleum to the country.” Nahem called on delegates to focus on actions that represent a united response to this qualitative turn of events in the world situation.

Missing sailboats carrying aid land in Cuba after being located by #Mexican navy
https://apnews.com/article/cuba-mexico-aid-boats-56f72fa44529c621b77b96fc2b74c613from #AssociatedPress #AP
Updated 7:19 PM EDT, March 28, 2026HAVANA (AP) — Two sailboats that went missing carrying humanitarian aid from southern #Mexico to #Cuba landed in Havana on Saturday afternoon hours after Mexico’s navy said it had located the boats days after they went incommunicado because of bad weather.
The vessels carrying at least eight people departed from Isla Mujeres in southern Mexico on March 20 and then lost contact, fueling concern in Mexico, Cuba and beyond.
In a post on X, the navy said an aircraft spotted the boats 80 nautical miles northwest of Havana. Upon arriving to the island, the coordinator of the sailing convoy said bad weather was responsible for the delay because the boats had to take a longer route and the sailors were “never in any serious danger.”

Cuban Leader: ‘Do We Talk or Negotiate with the Trump Administration’?
https://world-outlook.com/2026/03/22/cuban-leader-do-we-talk-or-negotiate-with-the-trump-administration/from #WorldOutlook
March 22, 2026On March 18, 2026, #ErnestoLimiaDíaz posted the following on his Facebook page. Limia Díaz is a historian, writer, member of the National Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba (known as UNEAC, its Spanish-language acronym), and director of the TV program MARCAS. He is also the author of the bilingual book Patria y cultura en Revolución (Homeland and Culture in Revolution).
Limia Díaz now provides historical context to the recent revelations by Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermudez that Havana is holding talks with the #Trump administration after Washington imposed a blockade of #petroleum shipments to #Cuba and threatened the overthrow of the #Caribbean nation’s revolutionary government.

‘The ‘Problem with Cuba’? Its Example of Solidarity and Internationalism’
Speech by Federation of Cuban Women Leader Osmayda Hernández Beleño
https://world-outlook.com/2026/03/17/the-problem-with-cuba-its-example-of-solidarity-and-internationalism/from #WorldOutlook
March 17, 2026[...] The “problem with #Cuba” is that it spread its example of #solidarity and #internationalism within a destructive #capitalism that expresses the opposite.
The “problem with Cuba” is that it has been and is an example of self-determination and resistance against the criminal #blockade. It is the example of having become involved in the struggle to end the #SouthAfrican #apartheid regime. It is the example it provided when it received the victims of the #Chernobyl disaster. It is the exemplary commitment of the #medical and health missions that Cuba sends to dozens of countries, and that has deepened as a policy in the middle of the pandemic, when no other country dared to do so.

Message of solidarity with Cuba from #AMLO - with a fund appeal
(translation from the FB post below)#AndresManuelLopezObrador [ex-president of #Mexico]
March 14, 2026I am in retirement, but it pains me to see that they seek to annihilate the brotherly people of #Cuba in the name of their ideals of freedom and the defense of sovereignty.
To those who think this is someone else’s struggle, I remind you of what General Cárdenas said during the Bay of Pigs invasion: “It is not right to advocate indifference toward their heroic struggle, because their fate is our own.”
Consequently, I invite everyone to make a deposit into Banorte account 1358451779 of the civil association Humanidad con América Latina, opened by citizens, writers, and journalists to purchase food, medicine, oil, and gasoline, and to help the Cuban people. Let everyone contribute what they can!

Video - Lula at FAO: "Cuba Knows How to Produce — They're Being Denied the Right To"
https://peertube.world/w/onrda1xcWZgNwSAvU3AAH9[a #video about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva argued that the island’s food crisis cannot be explained simply by production problems but with more than 60 years of #US economic warfare against Cuba.
Speaking at the opening of the #FAO Regional Conference for #LatinAmerica and the #Caribbean, #Lula’s comments come at a time when Cuba is facing a deep economic crisis, marked by food shortages and long blackouts, which have intensified under the #Trump administration's #blockade of #oil shipments.

A small but growing number of #US citizens are traveling to Havana for a breakthrough new treatment for Alzheimer’s...
Studies show that, unlike all other medications available for the disease, Cuba’s NeuralCIM not only stabilizes patients, in more than half of cases it reverses many of the symptoms of #Alzheimers. Cuba approved the medication for use last year, following several years of #medical trials.
An upcoming documentary, ‘Teresita’s Dream’, tracks the research and development of #NeuralCIM. It meets the Cuban scientists behind it, focusing on Dr Teresita Rodríguez, who was driven by her mother’s battle with Alzheimer’s. Watch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2Y5FBR0pnU
