US EditionInternational Humanitarian Convoy Delivers Aid to Cuba Amid Ongoing Energy Crisis
Some 650 delegates from 33 countries delivered 20 tons of aid including food, solar panels, and medicine to support Cuba amid warnings of a worsening humanitarian crisis.
- On Friday, some 650 delegates from 33 countries and 120 organizations began arriving in Cuba with about 20 tons of humanitarian aid, while more are scheduled to arrive by sea on Saturday from Mexico in a three-vessel flotilla.
- Because Mexico had been the only recent aid sender, activists and leaders organizing international donations expanded support amid a severe energy crisis worsened by an oil embargo imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump.
- Organizers said donations included solar panels, food and medicines to treat cancer, and the convoy involved Morena, the Workers' Party of Brazil and the Broad Front of Uruguay.
- Large government shipments arrived to supplement grassroots deliveries as Brazil announced 20,000 tons of food, and China's embassy reported a ship with 60,000 tons of rice, while Chilean parliamentarians arrived with aid on Thursday.
- Several analysts, including Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, warned of a possible humanitarian crisis, while Carlos Fernández de Cossío said Cuba's political system and President Miguel Díaz‑Canel are not negotiable.
