Cuba in crisis: Mexico sends two ships carrying aid to Cuba

Two Mexican Navy vessels have sailed for Cuba with powdered milk, beans and other non‑perishables, as Mexico emerges as Havana’s most reliable partner amid a US bid to block crude oil. A month into the White House campaign, the Trump administration threatens tariffs on fuel suppliers; President Claudia Scheinbaum says oil shipments are halted, but food and medical aid will continue. Nationwide collection points reflect public support, though some warn the effort is symbolic, underscoring strain in Mexico’s ties with Cuba and the US.
