Cuba has strongly condemned the recent measures taken by US President Donald Trump targeting the island, Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla said. "We strongly condemn the latest US escalation against Cuba," he wrote on X. "They are now proposing a total blockade of oil supplies to our country." "The US is also resorting to blackmail and coercion, trying to force other countries to join its widely condemned Cuba blockade policy, threatening those who refuse with arbitrary and unfair tariffs," the top diplomat noted. On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order allowing for duties on foreign countries that provide any oil to Cuba.
