Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba

The economic warfare against Cuba is being strengthened

On December 10, 2025, US military forces rapelled onto an oil tanker while it sailed in international waters in the Caribbean Sea, off the Venezuelan coasts.

Cuba participates in deliberations on compliance with the Chemical Weapons Convention.

The Hague, 27 November 2025. The plenary session of the 30th Conference of States Parties to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), which is being held in this European city from 24 to 28 November, continued its deliberations today on various issues related to compliance with the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) and the functioning of the multilateral body.

Statement of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, on the military presence of the United States in the Caribbean

The exaggerated and aggressive military presence of the United States in the region constitutes a threat against Latin America and the Caribbean as a whole.

With the encouragement of the Secretary of State, the main and immediate target is the violent overthrow of the government of Venezuela through the use of U.S. military force, an extremely dangerous and irresponsible action with unpredictable and incalculable consequences.

Given the manifest degree of threat, this constitutes a violation of International Law and the Charter of the United Nations.
