Russia Expresses Concern About US Pressure on Cuba
“There has been a deliberate effort to ratchet up the atmosphere of confrontation,” the ministry stated.
“Against this backdrop, Russia reaffirms its unwavering solidarity with the Cuban Government and its brotherly people. We firmly condemn attempts to grossly interfere in the domestic affairs of a sovereign state, intimidate it and engage illegal unilateral restrictive measures,” it added.
The ministry highlighted that Cuba continues to face unprecedented difficulties caused by longstanding trade, economic, and financial embargoes imposed by the United States. “For our part, we are providing and will continue to provide Cuba with the necessary support, including material assistance,” the statement said.
Recently, Cuba experienced a nationwide power outage, while fuel shipments to the island have been halted for over two months due to a tightened U.S. oil blockade. Reports also noted that U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that Cuba is likely to “fall pretty soon,” though his administration remains focused on the ongoing conflict with Iran “right now.”
