nternational solidarity is organizing to confront the intensifying economic siege against Cuba. A global coalition of unions and social movements confirmed the dispatch of a flotilla carrying essential supplies. This initiative responds to the need to break the energy strangulation policy that Cuba is suffering following recent pressure from the White House.
Under the name “Our America ,” the convoy will sail through the Caribbean in March to deliver essential food and medicine. Organizers explained that the strategy is inspired by the resilience of the Sumud Global Flotilla. The main objective is to break the logistical blockade that currently prevents Cuba from accessing vital products.

The Our America Flotilla is announced to deliver humanitarian aid to Cuba under US blockade.
Political leaders such as Jeremy Corbyn and Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib have publicly supported this humanitarian mission. They denounce the forced austerity measures in the Caribbean nation as a direct result of a policy of external aggression. These sanctions aim to paralyze several sectors essential to the country and thus affect the daily lives of Cuban families.
ANNOUNCING

While civil society mobilizes, some regional governments are already sending direct assistance to alleviate the current crisis. Mexico stands out with the delivery of hundreds of tons of food for the population. However, the complex geopolitical scenario requires keeping certain energy supply agreements confidential.
From the Kremlin, Russia is considering sending crude oil and refined products to alleviate the severe fuel shortage. This aid is critical after months without the arrival of oil tankers, a situation exacerbated by threats against commercial shipping companies. Havana is resisting in a context where international law is ignored by foreign powers.
The US has declared Cuba an “unusual and extraordinary threat”, authorising new sanctions and tightening its illegal blockade. Trump is trying to starve Cuba into submission — and millions of people will suffer. This is economic warfare, plain and simple. Hands off Cuba!
UN experts Despite widespread rejection in the General Assembly, coercive measures have recently intensified. The “Nuestra América” flotilla represents an act of dignity in the face of a siege condemned by the world.
