Fifth National Exercise for the Prevention and Confrontation of Crime, Corruption, Drugs, Illegalities and Social Indiscipline

Cuba: Actions Intensify to Prevent & Confront US-Inspired Crime! (19.5.2026)

There is a US-financed (it is all about money – and has always been about money for the Yankee Imperialists) Fifth Column operating within the Cuban Mainland. These individual men and women have secret ties to the US government which rewards their families living in the US and guarantees an affluent retirement when their destructive work is over. The propaganda against Socialist Cuba is seen everywhere in the West – even fictitious crime-dramas like “Dexter” – which whilst conveying the psychopathic tendencies of a forensic expert working for the police, still manages to present “Cuba” (and “Cubans”) as being hopelessly impoverished and just waiting for an opportunity of literally “throwing” their immaciated bodies into the sea and somehow “floating” to US shores (where Dexter is waiting to kill the survivors and stockpile their remains in a convenient warehouse). This is not an exaggerated racist trope – and we had to stop watching (consuming) this show as a protest. Cuban sportspeople – often dominant Boxers – are portrayed as drug-riddled lunatics who win not because Socialism generates a superior person – but because their system is deficient and insane. Alice is definitely “Through tthe Looking Glass”.

Cuba: Presidential Statement on Fuel Shortages! (13.5.2036)

A small group of ultra-rightists who have hijacked the policy towards Cuba and lie or deliberately and cynically misinform about the Cuban reality, while demanding more suffocation and threats against our people, fear this improvement.

Our response remains the same: always willing to dialogue on equal terms, we will continue to resist and create, convinced more and more that it is up to us to overcome the enormous difficulties with our own efforts, united as a nation, and firm to face the most difficult challenges.

US Fascism Has Been Attack Cuba for Decades!

Cuba: Blockade Upon Blockade: Collective Punishment Increases! (7.5.2026)

Logically, the key sectors of the economy continue to be a direct target, such as energy, the military or defense, metals and mining, security and finance, but it does not mean that they are the only ones, because they are charged against those who provide substantial aid, financial, material and technological support. In other words, anyone can be subject to sanctions, and the result is to prevent people from entering Cuba from the large investment to that individual help that provides the medicine that a sick child urgently needs. Because the blockade and each new order, measures or strategies that expand it, that extend its scope, do nothing more than accentuate the suffering of a people, in whose collective punishment they have been committed sick with hatred and impotence.

China urges the U.S. to stop at once the blockade and sanctions as well as coercion and pressuring of any form against Cuba

China: US Urged to Stop Blockade & Sanctions Against Cuba! (6.5.2026)

The spokesperson said that the U.S. intensification of illicit and unilateral sanctions against Cuba gravely infringes on the Cuban people’s right to subsistence and development and violates the basic norms in international relations.

"When I Grow Up - I Want to Be Like You" - Doctor & Mum Cut from the Same Cloth!

Cuba: “When I Grow Up – I Want to Be Like You” – Doctor & Mum Cut from the Same Cloth! (5.5.2026)

“There’s a lot of fear,” he admits. “Fear of not being able, of not being on time, losing more days… It scares us. The effectiveness of the treatment is lost.”
But Yohima does not stop at lamenting. His voice tightens, becomes precise.

“Regardless of all the difficult things we go through, like every good Cuban, we have the heartbeat, the knowledge. And emotions don’t need fuel, they don’t need oil to function.”

And then he shows with pride and relief the walls of his office. Equipped with what you need to spend the night. This small and warm space has something that no blockage can frustrate: a children’s gallery. “The children, when they arrived here, did not want to cross the threshold of the door,” he recalls. A colleague had the idea of distracting them with drawings. “They were accumulating and we were sticking the drawings on the wall, some that had no color, we colored them.” The children came back and saw his work, he motivated them and wanted to bring another one. “The idea is that they make this place a place for them, where everything is fine, where everything is safe.”
