Svmuu News: Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez stated on the 5th that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's claim that "Cuba is not suffering from an oil blockade" is a "lie." According to a press release published on the official website of the US Department of State, during a press conference at the White House that afternoon, Rubio stated that Cuba is not under an oil blockade. On social media, Rodríguez said that reality cannot be concealed: On January 29, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order threatening to impose ad valorem tariffs on goods imported from countries that provide oil to Cuba. Over the past period, only one fuel-carrying vessel has arrived in Cuba. All of Cuba's suppliers have been subjected to intimidation and threats, which violates the rules of free trade and the principle of freedom of navigation. A new executive order issued on May 1 expanded the scope of sanctions against Cuba. (Dongxinshe)
