Claudia Sheinbaum has reiterated that Mexico is exploring all diplomatic avenues to send oil to Cuba, following the United States\u2019 threat to impose tariffs on nations that supply crude oil to the island.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe problem we have now is that the United States said it will impose tariffs on any country that sells to Cuba, which is why we are exploring all diplomatic channels to resolve this issue, because we don\u2019t want to affect Mexico either,\u201d the president said.<\/p>\n<p>In response to a question during her regular press conference at the National Palace, the head of the Executive Branch reaffirmed her decision to send humanitarian aid to Cuba \u201cwhile the oil issue is being resolved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She mentioned the existence of other contracts with the Caribbean nation, besieged for more than 60 years by the economic, commercial, and financial blockade imposed by Washington and further intensified after the recent decree by US President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>The official referred this Wednesday to agreements for doctors from the Caribbean country to work in Mexico, where they are needed and \u201care paid what they are owed,\u201d in addition to the purchase of some medications and vaccines.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are contracts, like those we have with many other countries around the world, and also like the humanitarian aid we provide to everyone,\u201d Sheinbaum noted, emphasizing the support her nation has also given to others like the United States and Chile in the face of forest fires.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWherever they need us,\u201d she affirmed, \u201cwe will be there, because Mexico is a country and a people of solidarity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For his part, the director of Petr\u00f3leos Mexicanos (Pemex), V\u00edctor Rodr\u00edguez, explained that the state-owned company only has one contract with the island, from 2023, and that it is a commercial agreement like those it has with other nations around the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guantanamo.- President Claudia Sheinbaum has reiterated that Mexico is exploring all diplomatic avenues to send oil to Cuba, following the
