The Norwegian Communist Party condemns the latest escalation of sanctions imposed by the United States against Cuba. The executive order issued on 1 May 2026, followed by direct sanctions on 7 May against major Cuban economic entities, represents yet another act of imperialist aggression against the Cuban people. These measures target key sectors of Cuba’s economy, including tourism, mining, nickel and cobalt production, and foreign investment. They are designed not only to weaken the Cuban state, but to deepen hardship for the Cuban people.
