Cuba Accuses US of "Blatantly Lying" Over Fuel Blockade
(MENAFN) Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez condemned the United States on Saturday for “blatantly lying” regarding a fuel blockade imposed on the island, according to reports.
In a post on social media platform X, Rodriguez argued that U.S. statements conflict with its own executive orders and regulations, pointing to a Jan. 29 executive order and subsequent measures as evidence of a “brutal blockade” affecting Cuba’s fuel supplies.
He highlighted that these actions include threats of sanctions against third countries and foreign companies providing oil to Cuba, as well as aggressive measures targeting oil tankers.
Rodriguez further asserted that the U.S. policy seeks to weaken Cuba’s economy, disrupt its development, cut off revenue sources, and limit access to international markets and technology.
Cuba has long faced an economic and energy crisis exacerbated by decades of U.S. sanctions.
The United Nations has warned that ongoing fuel shortages are pushing the nation toward a humanitarian emergency.
