🇨🇺 #Cuba receives humanitarian 🆘 aid from 🇲🇽 #Mexico as Trump’s blockade bites | Feb 12, 2026
Humanitarian aid from 🇲🇽 Mexico has arrived in #Havana, as 🇨🇺 Cuba continues to struggle under what amounts to a fuel blockade by the Trump administration.
🆘 Mexico’s president said diplomatic efforts were underway to ease the embargo but heeded Donald Trump’s threats to impose tariffs on anyone supplying oil to 🇨🇺 #Cuba's communist regime.
🆘 answering Cuba's distress signal. Help
0:03
arriving in Havana today in the form of
0:05
two Mexican naval ships loaded with aid.
0:08
Neighborly solidarity in the form of
0:10
rice, beans, sardines, nearly 300 tons
0:13
of powdered milk. But it's oil that Cuba
0:15
so desperately needs and that Mexico
0:18
couldn't send without risking
0:19
retaliatory tariffs from the United
0:21
States.
0:24
It's very important help for the Cuban
0:25
people at this moment we are living
0:27
through. There's a lot of need and
0:29
uncertainty and we don't know how long
0:30
it'll go on like this.
0:33
Since Donald Trump announced an
0:34
effective oil blockade at the end of
0:36
January, the effects have been cascading
0:38
through Cuba's society. Already denied
0:40
Venezuelan oil since the US raid on
0:42
Caracus at the start of the year. The
0:44
situation growing ever more acute. Last
0:47
week, rationing imposed on petrol to go
0:49
with rolling power blackouts. Cuba
0:52
relies on oil for more than 80% of its
0:54
electricity generation.
0:56
People are buying three bags of charcoal
0:58
at a time so they can cook when there's
1:00
no electricity.
1:02
At the airport, jet fuel reserves all
1:04
but exhausted. That's led to Canadian
1:06
carriers unable to refuel for the return
1:09
journey to cancel upcoming flights.
1:11
Canadian and Russian airlines sending
1:13
empty planes to repatriate stranded
1:16
tourists. Canadian and Russian visitors
1:18
making up nearly half of Cuba's vital
1:20
tourism industry, which had already been
1:22
in steep decline in recent years.
1:27
In the end, everything is because of the
1:29
lack of dialogue between the two
1:31
governments. Ultimately, this is, as I
1:33
say in the Cuban style, it's like a
1:35
giant fighting with a child.
1:39
Down from the mountains, the conqueror
1:41
comes.
1:41
A fight that's had little letup since
1:43
Fidel Castro's communist revolution of
1:45
1959. through the botched invasion of
1:48
the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban missile
1:50
crisis that threatened a nuclear war,
1:53
then decades of embargo
1:58
until the brief detant of Barack Obama's
2:00
second term.
2:01
This is a new day
2:05
that Cuba is ready to fall. You know,
2:08
now in his second term, President Trump
2:09
has redesated Cuba a state sponsor of
2:12
terror, increasing the pressure on
2:14
Havana. his CubanAmerican Secretary of
2:16
State seen as the architect of the
2:18
policy.
2:19
Will you make a public commitment today
2:21
to rule out US regime change in Cuba
2:24
regime change? Yes.
2:25
Oh, no. I think we would love to see the
2:26
regime there change. We would like to
2:28
that doesn't mean that we're going to
2:29
make a change, but we would love to see
2:30
it change. There's no doubt about the
2:32
fact that it would be of great benefit
2:33
to the United States.
2:34
Cuba's President Miguel Diaz Canel says
2:37
he's ready for talks without US pressure
2:39
or preconditions. Mexico, China, Russia,
2:42
all calling for resolution through
2:43
dialogue.
2:45
reports in Moscow too that it is
2:47
preparing to defy Washington by sending
2:49
oil to its friends in Cuba. The Kremlin
2:52
spokesman not denying that and noting
2:54
the relative lack of US-Russian trade
2:56
right now that could be affected by US
2:58
tariffs.
3:00
Well, earlier I spoke to Francisco
3:01
Pichon who's the UN's resident
3:03
coordinator in Cuba. I asked him how bad
3:06
the situation was on the ground. the the
3:09
energy and the fuel crisis that uh we
3:14
are facing is really the main uh
3:17
humanitarian uh risk multiplier at this
3:21
moment. And we are not currently
3:24
describing this as a full scale
3:27
humanitarian emergency. But the risk uh
3:32
is concerning and it requires a lot of
3:36
close monitoring and a lot of uh
3:38
preventive action and that is what we
3:40
are focusing on at the moment.
3:42
How many days or weeks does Cuba have
3:45
before it runs out of fuel completely?
3:48
This is not very clear. Um there has
3:51
been uh numbers of days that have been..
