London, 27 February 2026: The historical significance and thinking of Fidel Castro continue to arouse interest in academic centres around the world. In the United Kingdom, the University of Nottingham's Centre for Cuban Studies serves as a vital bridge, bringing researchers and students closer to the reality of the island, supported by the Hennessy Collection, which, with more than 1,400 volumes, magazines and newspapers published since the 1960s, represents an invaluable tool for the international public to understand Cuba directly from its documentary sources.
London, 10 February 2026. Support for Cuba's sovereignty and rejection of US interference continue to gain momentum in the United Kingdom. More than 100 parliamentarians, trade union leaders, academics and cultural figures have joined the "Urgent Appeal for Peace and Sovereignty" promoted by the Campaign for Solidarity with Cuba (CSC), bringing the total number of signatures in defence of international law to more than 4,000.
The Cuba Tourist Office in London reports that tourism operations on the Island are proceeding normally and that demand remains stable. Bookings continue to be made from various markets, underpinned by an improvement in the global perception of the destination. Visitor feedback during this period has been notably more positive than that recorded last year.
London, 28 January – The historic ties of solidarity between the British trade union movement and Cuba were once again evident during the meeting between Ambassador Ismara Vargas Walter and Paul Nowak, General Secretary of the Trades Union Congress (TUC), at the organisation's headquarters in London.
STATEMENT FROM THE ASSOCIATION OF CUBAN RESIDENTS IN ST. KITTS AND NEVIS
We, the Association of Cuban Residents in St. Kitts and Nevis, wish to express our deep outrage, pain, and sadness upon learning of the death in combat of our brave and courageous combatants who fell in that treacherous and vile imperial attack against Venezuela.
As the last days of the year draw to a close, a vital shipment is crossing the Atlantic. It is not luxury goods, but essential resources: a container with 23 tonnes of powdered milk that will soon arrive at the port of Mariel. It is direct support from British workers to families in the eastern provinces severely affected by Hurricane Melissa last October.
Harare, November 20, 2025 – Solidarity and altruism have been the hallmarks of donations from Zimbabwe to Cuba following the powerful Hurricane Melissa's passage through the eastern part of the Caribbean nation.
A businessman who is a friend of the island, members of the Cuban diplomatic mission, and collaborators in higher education, as well as a Cuban resident in the African nation, contributed resources for the delivery of medicines and medical equipment.
November 9: The Cuban Embassy in the United Kingdom joined in commemorating the 108th anniversary of the Great October Socialist Revolution, a historic event that profoundly marked the course of peoples in their struggle for social justice, equality, and emancipation.
During the ceremony, Cuban Ambassador Ismara Vargas Walter highlighted the enduring principles of solidarity and sovereignty that link the Russian revolutionary epic with the Cuban people's own anti-imperialist struggle, from the Apostle José Martí to the historic leader Fidel Castro.
Amidst recovery efforts following Hurricane Melissa, the Campaign for Solidarity with Cuba (CSC) in Great Britain has announced an immediate donation of fifty thousand pounds sterling to support relief efforts in our country.
According to the British organisation, the funds come from its "Cuba Vive" campaign and will be used by the Cuban authorities to address humanitarian priorities in the most affected provinces, including vital medical assistance.
