Canada announces an assistance plan for Cuba amid the oil blockade imposed by the Trump Administration

Canada has announced that it will provide aid to Cuba, which is facing a severe fuel crisis caused by the blockade imposed by the United States on oil deliveries. The Trump administration has intensified pressure on Cuba, including by halting deliveries from Venezuela, which has led to rising food and transportation prices, as well as power outages.

The Canadian Foreign Minister, Anita Anand, stated that a assistance plan is being prepared, but did not provide details. The UN has warned that Cuba's unresolved energy needs could lead to a humanitarian crisis. Tensions between the US and Canada have increased in the past year, but Canada is monitoring the situation in Cuba with concern. Trump's foreign policy is criticized by experts for its imperialist approach.
