Mexico Defends Cuba Oil Shipments as Humanitarian Aid (peertube.world)

After headlines suggested Mexico had suspended oil shipments to Cuba, President Claudia Sheinbaum stepped in once again to clarify what actually happened.

Sheinbaum explained that oil from Mexico reaches Cuba through two paths: contracts managed by state-owned oil corporation Pemex, and humanitarian aid decided directly by the Mexican government. Neither, she said, has been halted.

The confusion comes at a critical moment for Cuba, as U.S. sanctions tighten and fuel shortages deepen. Sheinbaum emphasized again that humanitarian aid is a sovereign decision and will continue.

I think she was saying "we don't much care for your petty beef with Cuba, and we control our oil business."

I'd love to see someone get Russian about this: "I will discuss this with your successor."
