Video - UN Official: U.S. Sanctions Are Disrupting Humanitarian Aid to Cuba
https://peertube.world/w/euSiVyEWMnYH6tJnT9C3Ld
Duration - 19:27[a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
#US sanctions and the recent #oil #blockade have not only destroyed Cuba’s economy and fueled a humanitarian crisis. They are now also blocking #HumanitarianAid meant to alleviate suffering caused by US policy.
#UN Resident Coordinator Francisco Pichón sat down with Belly of the Beast journalist Liz Oliva Fernández to explain what he's seeing on the ground: how US #sanctions, fuel shortages and what is known as “over-compliance” by banks are delaying the delivery of medicines, food and other critical supplies.
“If the fuel blockade continues, the humanitarian consequences for Cuba will grow deeper and could become irreversible,” he warned.

#Trump’s Sanctions Disrupt #UNICEF Aid for #Pregnant #Women and Newborns

June 26, 2026“We’re not only being affected by the restrictions themselves, but what we call over-compliance,” said Pichón.
Banks, insurers, shipping companies and logistics providers have become so afraid of violating #US sanctions that they often refuse to work with #UN agencies trying to get #humanitarian aid to Cuba. Even when shipments arrive, fuel shortages in Cuba generated by the US oil #blockade hamper aid distribution.

Video - Cuba’s Green Solution to the U.S. Oil Blockade: #SolarPowered Electric Tricycles
https://peertube.world/w/ghzAPXvGNjjy2M36YTk4pE
Duration - 2:44[a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]
Electric tricycles have exploded across Cuba as the country faces extreme fuel shortages due to the #US-imposed #oil #blockade. But blackouts now last so long — 20 or more hours a day — there isn’t enough electricity to charge them.
So drivers are now installing #SolarPanels on top of their tricycles.
“As long as the sun is out, it’s charging the battery,” says Evanys Peréz. “Now we can travel up to 90 miles.”

#US politicians call Cuba’s #medical missions “forced labor,” without providing evidence to back the claim.
Cuban doctors volunteer to go on international missions, where they are paid many times more than what they make in Cuba. Cuban medical workers have served on international cooperation missions in more than 150 countries since the 1960s, usually working with populations that otherwise wouldn’t have access to care.
Listen to Cuban doctors in Italy’s Southern region of Calabria respond to U.S. accusations.

Cuban #medical workers have served on international cooperation missions in more than 150 countries since the 1960s.
During Covid, a #Cuban medical brigade helped #Italians in Lombardy, which triggered #Calabria’s president Roberto Occhiuto to reach out to Cuba in 2022 to invite hundreds of #doctors to his region. Calabria is one of the poorest regions in Italy and its #healthcare has suffered greatly from staffing and other issues.
“Cuba will always be in my heart,” says an elderly Italian man whose life was saved by a Cuban doctor.
