The Executive Order of May 1st and the blockade measures announced today increase the harm to the Cuban population and reinforce the threat of aggression.
Statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs rejects, in the strongest terms, the Executive Order issued by the White House on May 1, 2026, which intensifies, to extreme and unprecedented levels, the economic, financial and commercial blockade against Cuba.
Likewise, it condemns the decision of the United States Treasury Department of May 7, 2026, which added the Cuban entities Gaesa and MoaNickel SA to the List of Specially Designated Nationals, this being the first coercive measure derived from the order signed on May 1.
