This is a reaction to the United States’ decision to cut off fuel supplies to Cuba through sanctions on those who donate or trade hydrocarbons with the island.

This is not an isolated incident but a deliberate intensification of the historical policy of imperialist aggression aimed at punishing sovereignty and subjugating peoples who do not submit to US interests, the statement reads.

It underscores that such an action “is part of a broader context of escalating imperialist aggression, characterized by the use of economic sanctions, financial blockades, and extraterritorial coercion mechanisms as central tools of domination.”

This is achieved through a hypocritical rhetoric of “security” and “freedom” intended to provoke social suffering and discourage any indigenous political project, the political force’s statement points out.

It adds that the measure signed by US President Donald Trump is illegal and violates fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter, including the sovereign equality of States and non-interference in internal affairs.
