Cuba Experiences Third Total Blackout in 8 Days – Orinoco Tribune

#Cuba
The Trump administration has already cut off Cuba’s access to oil. Now it’s attempting to starve the Cuban people, targeting the country’s capacity to grow, process, and import food — unless it buys from US corporations.

At the #UN General Assembly today, Cuba’s Foreign Minister #BrunoRodríguezParrilla challenged Trump’s claim that Cuba is a “failed state.”
“If that were the case, why did they have to impose a fuel blockade?” he asked.
The #US diplomat present walked out during his speech.

Four Democratic lawmakers traveled to Cuba in July to see the human impact of the #US economic war on Cuba firsthand.
During the trip, Reps. Maxine Dexter (D-OR), Mark Pocan (D-WI), Teresa Leger Fernández (D-NM) and Delia Ramirez (D-IL) visited Havana’s Hermanos Ameijeiras #Hospital.
“We don’t have the resources to perform major surgeries,” Dr. Calixto Hernández told the delegation.
He said the hospital had performed 2,300 surgeries in the first four months of this year — 900 fewer than during the same period the year before.
“Does this make any sense?” Rep. Leger Fernández asked “A blockade that prevents basic materials for #health?”
“We have to end this war on the Cuban people,” Rep. Ramirez said. “It’s not just immoral. It’s evil.”

Rep. #MaxineWaters (D-CA) confronted Treasury Secretary #ScottBessent last week over his role in the #Trump administration’s “maximum pressure” Cuba strategy.
“You cut off all the #oil to Cuba," she said. “You’re starving the families, you’re starving the children.”
Since May, Bessent’s Treasury has sanctioned Cuba’s state-owned oil and gas company, fuel distributors and entities that import equipment needed to keep the island’s #nergy sector running.
“You don’t have to be cruel,” she told Bessent.
Watch her full remarks.

He said US policy is “collective punishment” meant to inflict economic pain on the #Cuban people.

Surprised #Cuba was the only delegation that walked out on him. I guess threatening to "annihilate" a country is cool so long as it's not YOUR country.

#Trump’s Economic Vise Leaves Cubans Desperate for Food and Medicine

Thousands of containers filled with food, #medicine and other goods bound for #Cuba have been stranded throughout the #Caribbean since two shipping giants stopped deliveries to avoid tough #US #sanctions, according to diplomats, Cuban officials, merchants and others involved in the imports.
The containers stranded in various ports include humanitarian aid, from #SolarPanels to #medication to colostomy bags. Dozens of containers of aid purchased by different #UN agencies are among them.
US sanctions have also hobbled shipments by air, and forced the #WorldHealthOrganization to scrap planned deliveries of cancer drugs.

⚠️ Confirmed: Analysis of network data shows a significant decline in internet traffic in #Cuba corresponding to reports of a nation-scale power blackout. The incident is the latest in series of widespread outages triggered by a months-long US oil blockade
"Several Trump Organization executives who had previously traveled to the island to explore real estate deals and who even registered the Trump trademark there in 2008 have in recent months returned to Cuba under the aegis of Dominari Holdings for meetings"

>> CUAD students, Students for Justice in Palestine, and Jewish Voices for Peace. Thank you, guys.
“To all of my Jewish brothers and sisters: criticism of Israel, criticism of apartheid, being against genocide in no way is a criticism of you. My message is for peace; love for all human beings to be treated with dignity, respect, and equality.
“So I say Free Palestine, I say Free #Lebanon, I say Free #Cuba, I say Free #Congo, Free #Sudan, I say Free all people in America living in fear of this terrorist organization, #ICE. None of us will be free until we are all free."

This is a story about the begining of Covid, thousands dying in Italy, Hospitals crushed and Cuba sent hundreds of doctors into the cities of Italy.
So we'd all remember later, when the Americans would get crazy again.
