Statement by the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs from Havana on October 11, 2025
The Government of the Republic of Cuba rejects the false accusations that the United States government is spreading about Cuba’s alleged involvement in the military conflict in Ukraine. This is a slanderous accusation that began in 2023 by some media outlets, without providing any evidence or basis whatsoever, and clearly fulfilling a commissioned service. (more…)

Spoiler alert – it already has. This is not a glib answer but a comment on the nature of the conflict. The US mission to wrench Venezuela’s Bolivarian Revolution out from its roots has a quarter-century pedigree. Stick around to the end of the article for an assessment of the likelihood of an overt military attack inside Venezuela. But first a little historical context. (more…)
World Congress of Peoples in Defense of Mother Earth, Caracas, Venezuela
October 11, 2025
From the heart of the territories in resistance, more than 3,000 national and international delegates from 63 countries around the world gathered in Caracas, Venezuela, on October 9 and 10, 2025, at the World Congress in Defense of Mother Earth, declare that COP30 in Belém will be the stage where we will demand historic climate justice.

The Network of Intellectuals, Artists, and Social Movements in Defense of Humanity strongly denounces and condemns the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to María Corina Machado, which constitutes a cynical escalation within the hegemonic discourse and war action of the United States. This maneuver is not naive; it deliberately seeks to install in our collective imagination the narrative for an invasion of Venezuela, disguised as a “war for freedom.” (more…)

Silvio, fotos: Bill Hackwell
“Silvio in concert or something similar is a good place to start… his songs make me think…” These verses from “Sábado corto,” Pablo Milanés’ ballad popularized in the 1980s, were the mantra of my generation: going out into Havana at night, meeting friends and Silvio Rodríguez in some neighborhood to savor the literary dignity of a part of Cuban popular music that has struggled to make poetry with song lyrics.

The possible exclusion of Cuba, as well as Venezuela and Nicaragua, from the upcoming X Summit of the Americas demonstrates once again that these meetings, far from promoting dialogue, are intended to divide the Patria Grande (Great Homeland) for the benefit of US interests of domination. (more…)

the state targeted media
The 2024 Shadow Report on Press Freedom in Latin America, prepared by the Voces del Sur network, reveals an alarming scenario for Peruvian journalism: the government has emerged as the main aggressor against the press in 2024. (more…)
