Oliva participated last night in a discussion on the legal and humanitarian consequences of the blockade imposed almost 65 years ago by Washington, which tightened after a decision adopted by President Donald Trump to sanction countries that export oil to the island.

“No fuel has entered the country for three months,” the ambassador said and recalled that the US blockade have effect in all sectors, such as energy, transportation, and economic activity.

The diplomat warned that this does not mean Cuba is collapsing, because schools, hospitals, and other centers continue to operate, albeit with great difficulty.

On the other hand, 43 photovoltaic parks, representing a total of 1,000 megawatts per day, were built in 2025, and an ongoing investment this year will add a similar amount.

Oliva expressed his gratitude for the assistance provided in Havana by 21 Chilean representatives, including four legislators, who are participating in the Our America Convoy.
