In the face of threats and aggression against Cuba, against a Revolution that has made its principles its shield—and the world knows this well—numerous voices, coming from the most diverse corners of the globe, are rising in support of the island’s determination to defend its sovereignty.
Thus, as Political Bureau member Roberto Morales Ojeda, Organizational Secretary of the Party’s Central Committee, recently stated on X, “every show of international support, every expression of solidarity, is a seed that strengthens our conviction.”
On the same social media platform, Colombian President Gustavo Petro declared: “I do not agree with a military aggression against Cuba because that is a military aggression against Latin America. We said that the Caribbean is a zone of peace and that must be respected. The Cuban people are the sole masters of their country.
“The American continent will live in peace if no one seeks to impose themselves on others. This continent is the continent of Freedom, not of invasions. Honor to José Martí and to the free and sovereign republics of Latin America and the Caribbean,” he emphasized.
Ariadna Montiel Reyes, in her speech after being elected president of the Mexican Morena party, raised her voice—“as in other moments in history”—“against any attempt at intervention against the people of Cuba, because their struggle for dignity and the right to decide their own destiny is also part of our own struggle.”
In that regard, she joined the call previously made in Barcelona by President Claudia Sheinbaum “to put an end to all economic blockades against the island (…) Our solidarity will always be with the people of Cuba!” she affirmed.
In an official statement, Uruguay’s Frente Amplio condemned any attempt at military intervention or deployment against Cuba. It also urged the U.S. government to abandon confrontational actions and establish a respectful dialogue on an equal footing. It also called on its people to mobilize in defense of peace and to remain vigilant in the face of this escalation, which once again threatens the stability of Latin America and the Caribbean as a zone of peace.
The Communist Party of India (CPI) strongly condemned the United States’ actions and threats against Cuba. In a statement signed by its General Secretary D. Raja, the organization noted that this represents a dangerous continuation of the decades-long policy of economic blockade, coercion, and intervention aimed at undermining Cuba’s sovereignty and its socialist path. It expressed its unwavering solidarity with the Cuban Communist Party and the Cuban people in their struggle to defend their sovereignty and socialist achievements.
For its part, the Guatemalan National Revolutionary Unity Party (URNG) emphasized that the historic May 1st, in the year of Fidel’s centennial, strikes a blow against U.S. imperialism, which believes—and seeks to make others believe—that Cuba is willing to surrender to its threats of military aggression. Similarly, it expressed its confidence that the Cuban people, under the leadership of the Communist Party; its historic leaders, such as Army General Raúl Castro Ruz; its President, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez; and guided by an immense creative, resilient, and combative spirit, will continue to resist and overcome any form of aggression, including direct military aggression. The URNG emphasized its deepest support for the people and government of Cuba; furthermore, it categorically condemned all aggression and called for the development of a Multipolar Front of International Solidarity.
The Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America-Peoples’ Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP) expressed its deep concern and firm rejection of the escalation of statements by the U.S. government that “threaten the use of force against the sister Republic of Cuba,” in a regional context marked by tensions that jeopardize peace and stability in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Similarly, it urged the U.S. government to prioritize the path of “respectful dialogue, on an equal footing, without threats or conditions,” in full compliance with the UN Charter and with respect for Cuba’s sovereignty and independence.
For its part, the American Association of Jurists, in an official statement, denounced the escalation of aggression and asserted that the measures taken by the Trump regime—”of an imperialist nature—evoke the Monroe Doctrine and constitute a further tightening of the 67-year-old economic, commercial, and financial blockade against the Cuban people.” The AAJ reiterated its demand for the closure of the illegal Naval Base in Guantánamo and its return to Cuba and called on the UN and the international community to demand respect for the island and to urgently convene the United Nations Security Council.
