Mexico is facing a familiar problem—one that has shaped its history for more than a century. How do you protect your sovereignty when you live next door to a superpower that sees your country less as an equal and more as a strategic asset? (more…)
Responding to the escalating actions of the Trump Administration to try and heap more suffering on heroic Cuba the National Network on Cuba – NNOC has called on all its member organizations to initiate actions across the US from March 8 – March 15. Resumen Latinoamericano, a member organization of the NNOC, is joining this call for all of our subscribers to mobilize at this critical time. Trump and Rubio want to crush Cuba because it gives a glimpse of what a society, democratically governed around the needs of the people, looks like. To the criminals in the White House Cuba represents a disobedient nation that stands for peace, co operation and mutual respect between nations; not dominance and greed.

The recent Executive Order signed by Donald Trump on January 29 is another step in an increasingly evident strategy to “gaskify” life on the island. This has been noted in numerous analyses on the subject. The worsening oil embargo is affecting all sectors of the country’s economic and social life, exacerbating material conditions that were already severely affected by the post-pandemic crisis and the sustained wave of US measures against the Cuban economy.

“Year of the Centenary of Commander-in-Chief Fidel Castro Ruz” – To all sister and solidarity organizations around the world
The National Association of Small Farmers (ANAP) of Cuba denounces before the world the criminal and new escalation of aggression by Yankee imperialism against our people. The extreme application of Executive Order 14380, which imposes sanctions on any country that sends oil to Cuba, is an act of economic warfare aimed at paralyzing our nation, suffocating our industry and agriculture, and causing suffering among Cuban families.
