Sheinbaum Claims that Humanitarian Aid to Cuba "Continues" Despite Us Criticisms

Mexico will continue humanitarian oil aid shipments to Cuba, assessing each request individually despite U.S. criticism and recent Pemex cargo removal, President Sheinbaum said.

  • On Monday, Nov. 17, 2025, Claudia Sheinbaum, Mexico's president, said humanitarian oil exports to Cuba will continue and be evaluated case-by-case at the National Palace, Mexico City.
  • Pemex, Mexico's state-owned oil company, removed a Cuba-bound cargo earlier this month after Donald Trump announced no more oil or money would go to Cuba.
  • Earlier this week, Sheinbaum stressed Mexico's decision-making authority, saying `a sovereign decision, and Pemex makes its own decisions' and exports respond `based on the requests'.
  • Political figures in the U.S. denounced the stance after Trump announced earlier this month a halt to oil and money to Cuba, with Carlos Gimenez calling Sheinbaum's position a `pathetic decision'.
  • Cuba has long faced shortages due to blockades, and Venezuela had been its top oil supplier, highlighting Mexico's humanitarian aid amid regional energy shifts.
