The Cuban ambassador expresses gratitude for the contributions made by Cypriot friends and supporters during the campaign to provide material aid to Cuba.
Nicosia, Cyprus, March 30, 2026. The Cuban ambassador to Cyprus, Rubén Pino Martínez, thanked several friends of Cuba—or simply Cypriot citizens in solidarity with the largest of the Antilles—who decided to join the ongoing campaign to collect material aid and basic necessities from this island in the eastern Mediterranean.
The idea of filling a fourth container to be shipped from Cyprus—the result of the selfless support of hundreds or thousands of people who embrace the cause and fate of the Caribbean island—is gaining new supporters and volunteers every day. They are joining the efforts of the Cyprus-Cuba Friendship Association; the Pan-Cypriot Committee for Peace; the contributions of the “Caliente Dance Studio"; and, now, various regional branches of the Pan-Cypriot Federation of Labor of Cyprus (PEO), which have made their premises available to collect powdered milk, medicines, and other essential supplies to be sent to Cuba shortly.
It is this altruistic dedication and open commitment that will also inspire the Cypriots who will soon join the upcoming campaign of solidarity and support for the Cuban people, promoted by the Secretariat of the World Federation of Trade Unions from Nicosia, Cyprus, with coordinated actions in support of the island during the week of April 6–12, without equivocation, they hope to ensure that socialist Cuba finds in every member and friend of the WFTU from every country in the world a clear condemnation of U.S. aggression and its pressure and energy blockade against the island and that it is reiterated loud and clear, in a united voice, what is becoming increasingly difficult to hide: #CubaIsNotAlone.

The National Council of the Pan-Cypriot Labor Federation of Cyprus (PEO) ratifies its unconditional support for Cuba.
Nicosia, Cyprus, March 26, 2026. - Representatives of the Cypriot working class affiliated with the Progressive Party of Working People (AKEL) ratified this Thursday at their National Council their unconditional support and solidarity with Cuba.
The session welcomed as a special guest the Ambassador of the Republic of Cuba in Cyprus, Rubén Pino Martínez, who received from the General Secretary of the Pan-Cypriot Labor Federation (PEO), Sotiroulla Charalambous, the sentiment and solidarity attachment of the thousands of workers affiliated with this labor confederation on the island in the Eastern Mediterranean.
As Sotiroulla Charalambous expressed, "Solidarity with Cuba is part of the struggle we maintain for our principles and values of dignity that today prevail in Cuba and in our working class," she specified. "We do not do it out of habit or mandate, but because the siege of North American imperialism becomes increasingly inhumane and aggressive against the Cuban nation, and, under the current conditions in which its people live, we feel that we have to support its workers, because their struggle means something more important for Cypriot workers, who understand the right of the Cuban people to defend their future, their self-determination, and the ability to live in peace."

CUBA IS NOT ALONE – WORKING WOMEN AGAINST THE IMPERIALIST BLOCKADE . STATEMENT of WFTU WORKING WOMEN'S COMMETTE
CUBA IS NOT ALONE – WORKING WOMEN AGAINST THE IMPERIALIST BLOCKADE – WFTU International Week of Solidarity from 6 to 12 April
The Women’s Commission of the World Federation of Trade Unions expresses its full and militant solidarity with the Cuban people and the working women of Cuba, who for over sixty years have been resisting with dignity, determination and internationalist spirit the brutal economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by US imperialism.
The blockade against Cuba is a criminal act, a form of economic warfare that aims to strangle a people who have chosen their own path of sovereignty, social justice and dignity. This aggressive policy directly affects the daily lives of Cuban workers, seeking to create hardship, scarcity and social pressure.
